Participating in this conversation
Is murdering this persons reputation
Killing her chances of being popular
Why do it?
Because it feels good
Because it makes you feel better about yourself
To know others have problems
And not just you
To know others
Are being stabbed in the back
And not just you
You want them
You need them
To feel the same pain that you felt
When you realized your friend went behind your back
To feel the same embarrassment that you felt
When people were whispering and they suddenly stop when you are near
When you heard the rumors
That people were saying about you
That have been twisted and made into things you could never imagine
Because of the lying mouths of others
When you heard the secrets about yourself
That you thought were always going to be safe
From the ambitious ears of others
Like the millions of dollars in the bank
So you fight back because
You want to let people know that you will fight in this battle
The battle where you started as friends
But it will end with you
As foes
Fighting forever
Till one of you finally gives in
Till the fight is dead
