My World, My Words

180

Its funny how life can pull and 180
One minute people will be your friends, the next maybe
How one day you can lend a shoulder for someone to weep
Open up and make an emotional connection that is very deep
Looking into crying eyes and wipe tears from someone's cheek
Then not hear from that person for more than a week
How one minute someone can be in a relationship and it not be an issue
But then have certain responsibilities to heir partner and cant talk to you
How people will take your thoughtful insight and heart felt advice
Then shake you off like a pair of dice
How people can throw friendships away in the blink of an eye
Then comeback needing a shoulder to cry
How people can know your deepest desires and darkest fears
Then abandon you like you haven't been friends for years
But what's really funny is their miraculous return
How one minute they don't care but now they're concerned
How they couldn't even call you, but now your friendship they yearn
How they get all mad with you if you act like you were burned
How there's been no resolution to the awkward situation
But they expect you to show the same dedication
As if there was no form of separation
Leaving you lost and confused in deep contemplation
Wondering if its worth trying to build back to its peak
Or if its better if you two just didn't speak
Because on one hand this is the friend that you find once in a life
But there is a tension so thick you can cut it with a knife
With unsolved issues and the human thought process
Its hard to find and protect your best interest
You want to make them feel like they were holding the pen
But at the same time you're their true friend
And turning your back doest yield a solution
But it only deepens the cut and widens the contusion
Then you get caught in the biggest catch 22
You know what you want to say but you're quite scared to
You need to approach the situation but your fear's now active
Then you feel suspect about all of your tactics
So you shoot holes through all of your good plans
It's tearing you up inside, its something you cant stand
You spend hours talking to yourself trying to find the right words
But when you hear yourself speak it sounds so absurd
And through all this your see how your friend could have acted shady
Isn't it funny how life can pull an 180
