I have a friend, a beautiful friend, there’s so much she has done

I’m a sick friend, an unreliable friend, How was her devotion won?

I cancel last minute, I avoid everyone, I’m unreliable now

She wants to help, to give support, she’s just unsure of how. 

I close my door, say “maybe tomorrow,” push all the hugs away.

I feel ashamed, how’d it get so bad? I don’t have the words to say. 

I’m riddled through with unspoken curses, I want it all to end. 

The pain tries to call all the shots, often winning over a friend…

Hopefully once day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!!
