Array ( [sid] => 92493 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Forgive I Cannot [time] => 2005-04-27 21:49:58 [hometext] => at times it gets so frustrating... and i question as to why i am her friend... wrote this in a moment of anger. comments are greatly appreciated [bodytext] => You come to me again
Like I should just forgive you
But you hurt me bad this time
And im lost in what to do
You say such vile things
And act like nothing’s changed
But I get so sick of it
My feelings rearrange
I cannot find reason
Of why we were friends
I’m sorry it turned out like this
I’m sorry this is how it ends
Your criticism and claims
On all my mistakes and my faults
It’s always the same with you
You’re always right, I’m always wrong
Do you not see it?
How you take advantage of me
You’ve covered my sight
So I cannot see
But you deny what’s right there
Clear in front of your face
The truth about you
The falsities you chase
I can’t take it anymore
You never apologize
You make me feel stupid
You make me break down and cry
Why continue on like this
When you don’t listen anyway
I’m sorry, I am
And that’s more than you can say
I thought we were FRIENDS
Does that not mean a thing to you?
You tore me up and left me in pieces
Forgiveness this time I cannot do

This is a strong and powerful write. I can feel ur anger and pain through ur words. U don't need a friend like that. You deserve someone who will treat u with love and respect. A great write.
Hugs,
~sue~

This is so different from what you normally write. Where to start??? Okay, I guess it's a good thing that this poem's theme is different from the right at the edge poetry, like you are considering the final solution. Anger at one individual without self harm/suicide in the picture shows a willingness to respect one's needs and that in mind is a very good thing. The world is a much better place with you in it.
The feelings you express toward your friend are indeed strongly noted here. I can never intellectually understand the variable dynamics of friendship. My daughter has a friendship where she is similar to you (which I found out when my ex read my daughter's diary which was a horrible thing to do) and her friend is like your friend. But my daughter still stays with her friend. Of course, maybe she hasn't hit her threshold as you have. How long have you known your friend and will you be better without him/her? I am not doubting the accuracy of what you say nor am I arguing with the veracity of the previous poster, but terminating a friendship is a serious thing and when the anger subsides (if it does), well, that might be a better time to consider some sort of action.
I would encourage you to communicate your feelings to him/her. This poem may be a good place to start. Hmmm, should have e-mailed this but, it's late, so it stays as a comment.

This is a really strong poem. I think you should do your best to forgive this person but no longer be friends with them. Unforgiveness makes people really miserable and it's not worth it.

A friend who treats you so badly and cares nothing for your feelings is not really a friend at all....the word friend becomes meaningless.
However hard it may seem, its time to let go

It reminds me of me. I'm such a jerk to my best friend, and I don't mean to be. I feel so regretful, and I've even near cried myself to sleep just wishing he were there so I could apologize for all the things I've done. But when I stare him in the face, and see how he's still my friend, it's like he's saying he forgives me and understands I didn't mean it. Me and him don't have an emotional relationship where we express ourselves to each other, so telling him I'm sorry would be the most awkward feeling in the world.
It feels weird being on the other side of your poem. I'd love to say that your friend regrets ever hurting you and that he or she is like me, tearing themselves up inside over it. I feel lightheaded now... I want to be able to say forgive them, because they don't mean to hurt you, but I'm not them. I haven't hurt my best friend in a very long time, because I've changed. I don't know about your friend, but I'll be sorry for him or her. I'm sure he regrets it if he has any feeling at all.
But typing this seriously makes me want to pass out. Odd...
