Friends For Never

by Boogienights

Betrayal Contest Winner 
Friends, I thought we'd be forever,
my secrets, that only you knew,
are ones you posted on Facebook.
Betrayed I am, what did you do?

For likes, you spilled all my secrets,
comments made, they're hurtful, mean.
I thought of you just like a sister,
but you're the cruelest that I've seen.

Hopes and dreams, all that I told you,
a crush I had; you wrote his name.
Now at me, he looks with pity,
I only have myself to blame.

Foolishly, I thought you loyal,
I loved you so, you had my trust.
Perhaps I should become just like you,
with my main goal... hurt you or bust.

I won't I think, I'm not like that.
Though you have secrets just like me,
but hurting you,won't help my healing,
you're not the way I'd like to be.

I'm sad now, that it's all over,
the friendship we've had for so long.
I hope your Facebook friends suffice,
I hope you learn how much you're wrong.
