Back when we were friends
But friendships never last
Just like pain never amends
I remember when we'd talk
Back when it was just us
Through the hallways together we walked
And we had such incredible trust
But life changes and so do we
Nothing ever stays the same
Now one of your enemies has become me
I'll take my revenge and win this game
You pray for love and tell your lies
Hoping someday it'll come true
But for now alone in your room you cry
Your death will come soon
I remember how we use to laugh
I remember the fun we had
But every moment is cut in half
And all that remains is bad
I remember how we once were close
But now all we do is fight
These are consequences to what we chose
Now nothing again will be right
Now I leave you all alone
Cold, confused, and hollow
My love will never again be shown
But I shall remain in the shadows. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 183 [topic] => 52 [informant] => CuttersAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => goodbyepoetry )

Nothing ever stays the same
Now one of your enemies has become me

You pray for love and tell your lies

But for now alone in your room you cry

My love will never again be shown
But I shall remain in the shadows.

What an unexpected end. Its true most of things in our life change, so sad to loose a friend and become enemies (it happened to me as well). Keep on writing! Interestign poem :D

This happens to most people I think. However I must respond to the line, 'Just like pain never amends' it does trust me its slow, but soon it heals.

Well, I've never had a friend that became an enemy, except for way back in stupid elementary school, but I have had an enemy that became a friend... everything changes with time. Including the bad. Every time you lose something good, you gain something good. It's how the universe keeps itself in balance. Keep that in mind. Great write!

I really enjoyed this one. It just drew me in and I am not sure why. It was good.
