 Poetry By A CONTEMPORARY POET

I'm Tired Of Being Used


I have friends that right now I should disown.
Every pay check they seem to need a loan.
They always have something negative to say.
I wonder why my friends are that way.
I'm tired of being used and abused.
If I don't hear from them it must be good news.
Because the only time they seem to call.
They have problems that I don't want to hear at  all.
What do they think I could possibly do?
They act as if they are the only ones who have problems,we all do.
When I need to talk or express what's on my mind.
They don't want to hear or they don't have time.
I'm tired of being used and abused.
When every time they call me they are always singing the blues.
Week after week,day after day.
I wonder why people are funny that way.
I made up my mind and now I want to let this be known.
I have some friends I've already disown.
I'm always giving to get nothing in return.
Through every hard lesson I too had to learn.
I finally got to the point that I'm tired of being used.
You will learn to when you have walked a mile in my shoes.
