Speak to me,
When you know the meaning of,
Loyalty,

A very lonely man,

You’re oh so wrong,

Not quantity,

You know,
The meaning of,
Friendship?
I,
Was begging you,
To change your,
Two-faced ways,
I,
Understand,
The meaning of,
Divided loyalty,

Before me,
You,
May have loved me once,
But certainly,
Not now,

Truth it hurts,
I’m just tryna,
Even the score,
I,
Was more of a,
Friend to you,
Than you were to me,
You’re,
Too into yourself,

Took your picture off my wall,
Screwed it up,
And threw it in the bin,

Burnt the song,
I,
Wrote for you,
Thanks,
For nothing,
I could only take,
So much,
But this,
I cannot take,
Please,
Explain to me,
How you can be friends with,
My enemy,
Do,
You really wanna be friends,

to be completely honest, i didn't like it, at least not the way it was presented. The punctuation is a distraction; I cant concentrate on the message when the punctuation makes the poem sound all choppy, because thats what its doing. When I read the poem, my first thought was "what did I just read?" I had to go through the poem 3 or more times to get past the choppy-ness of it. But, once I stopped paying attention to the commas, I liked it. It has a good message, just not a good presentation. Basically, I like the poem in itself, but not when its all chopped up like it is.
