Array ( [sid] => 26424 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Friends don't need approval [time] => 2003-11-04 12:04:10 [hometext] => I wrote this for a friend who walked out of my life because he didn't agree with a decision I made [bodytext] => Use me as a crutch if that is what you need
that's what you always told me
forever what I believed
Call anytime be it day or night
through the darkest darkness you promised to be my light
If there's anything you need
feel free to let me know
you are like a sister
not by blood though
did I forget to mention, you left me here alone
not because it is what's best
but its all that you have known
I’m not out to hurt you
but why should I hurt me
at least I have something
the ability to believe
I won’t just give up if I feel it’s wrong
Though it may not be easy I choose to go on
I never asked for your approval
For you to agree
I never asked for anything
but for you to be a friend to me
And now that I’ve made up my mind
You're choosing to run away
Not worth the friendship to stick around another day?
I can’t say it doesn’t hurt
Unlike you I will not lie
If this is the end so be it
But at least have the balls to say goodbye

Aren't you sick of people not even having the decency to say goodbye? I liked this one and I could easily relate. Know that they wheren't that good of a friend and you will have/find better ones.
Good luck.

This poem is very well put ... a friend did the same thing to me very recently. So i know how you feel. but if she was a true friend she never would have walked out on you in the first place ... take care

Thank you for this poem. A friend after two years walked out of my life this week after saying he would always be here. I told him to walk away yes but a true friend would have stayed and fight . We fight for friendship right ?

Have you thought of using stanzas with this poem. If you don't know what they are I be happy to show you This poem was lovely and sorry you got hurt :(
