    Poem Commentary

    Ever have a friend that was only your friend when it was convenient for them?

    Friendships Charade
    Laying mutely watching the world pass me by 
    Eyelids grow heavy over hazy unseeing eyes 
    The day is warm but the skin remains cold 
    Shielding vainly the trembling pitiful soul 

    The words...hateful venomous seething with disdain 
    You used them against me to stake your claim 
    So maintain your status among the pretenders

    You shared your laughter with me 
    You gave me your tears
    Was it all simply lies? 
    Were they your legitimate fears?

    Forget me where I lie
    Pass me by with an uncaring eye 
    Allow the anguish to build up inside 
    I will not however let you see me cry 

    Certainly once they are gone for the day 
    You can drop your charade 
    Once again you will be by my side 

    Offer me your apologies and sweet smiles 
    Surely I will be drawn in as I always am
    As sad as it is the simple truth is
    I will take you any way that I can

    sad sad sad to need the company of another so much........once you come to terms with the fact that you are your own best friend, the easier life will be. Stop giving energy to pretenders and a whole lot of time will open up to meet someone real........great poem.....i've been where you are and it sucks to be there.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
