When I said the unsaid I expected to still feel loved Still feel wanted I expected everything to be the same But I was disillusioned Ignorant Nave Theyre reactions were that of judgment and condemnation They use to keep themselves close Now they are distant As if I have a disease Or if it is contagious through air-born pathogens Each of them are afraid Afraid of the unknown Afraid of anything and everything that contradicts what they see as acceptable
Losing them is draining my whole body of blood and warmth The endless tears I cried and still cry soak my pillow and keep me awake in the night Emptiness overwhelms me, knowing that they wont be there They are to blind to see the hurt they are causing They say they still care Theyll still pray for me That this doesnt mean were not friends But I will no longer trust the untrustworthy They can keep their ignorant and Holier Than Thou faade It will soon be broken down by the harsh reality, which they do so well to keep away from
Forgive them for their judgments and stereotypes Forgive them for tearing our friendship down so quickly As if I were never an importance Like I was just there to take up space and to fill awkward silences
Seven years of common ground Understanding Love Care All wasted, a waste of time
Seven years of worry Tears Smiles Laughs Staying up late, wondering if your best friends made it home If theyre hurt If theyre lost Or if theyre just doing ok A great big waste of time
Ive tried to make them understand Put themselves in my shoes See it from my point of view They cant They are too closed-minded They are unable to negotiate My attempts do not even make a dent You cannot persuade the unpersuadable
Although I know this, I still try Thinking maybe this time Ill get through to them Just maybe theyll understand Theyll see it my way Theyll come around someday Wont they? They never will Im fighting a lost cause Knowing, that in the end, I will be defeated
But I dont need friends like them Conditional friends They are there when everything is roses and rainbows But retreat when things seem unstable or when they feel their perfect world is being threatened I dont need friends who dont allow me to be myself And who dont accept me for who I am I will not be overran by zombies who follow along with everything that is told to them These are people who cannot and will not think for themselves People who cannot change People who are afraid to make a stand This is my stand

The poem was well written though sad indeed. No one deserves friends like that. A true friend would let you be you no matter what. |

Good poem..really expresses your emotions......By the way if your friends cannot accept you for who you are and how you feel then in reality they were never(truly)friends
you are who you are...be safe be happy |

Right now I'm sad and angry with your friends! How could they do this to you! Grrr I hate closed minded people! This poem is very touching! Your emotions are well transferred through the words. Great write! You must be strong and cling to your principles, I support you and there a loads of people that do the same, I have gay friends and we're all open minded if you need to talk pm me I'm happy to help :)
