"The good times of today, are the sad thoughts of tomorrow" ~Bob Marley



We were the best of friends, not a worry in the world
But that was my perspective, viewing life from my rose colored glasses
I was oblivious of your mortification of being my friend
Through all this time, I stuck by your side when you were forlorn
Never did I know you took me for granted
One day, life came colliding down, like a waterfall of agony
That was the day you departed me from your life
Leaving me like an abandoned dog
I asked for reasoning and you plead the fifth
But I understood why; you wished popularity and admiration
Wasn’t my care and love enough?
Now I am forlorn, except I don’t have someone by my side
The pain is unbearable, tears welling in my eyes with every thought of you
I long to be saved from depression
Each day I wake up stabbed in the heart, pleading for help
Sometimes I wonder if death is the only way to escape the demon’s clutches
I am trapped, still clinging to old memories
Everyone I once knew now looks at me as if I’m a worthless stranger
I yearn happiness, but happiness does not yearn for me
