watching aviate above and escape

Watched someone loose a friend and clammer as she saw it fade at the last minute...sometimes you have to be willing to be wrong (when you really are) in order to keep a good friend.

gather around tightly...I'm amusing
consistently a pleasure as frankness is elusive
except for the witty repartee, quick jest
resting is stupidity, arrested expression

as I have denied
denied
denied

best confidant ever met been truth to me
every attribute opposite is my failure to be
have to repent but where's the release
how is it I have chosen to skate sauntering by
painted lips usher's lies of mine
red rouged of hers have captured disguise

a staunch rejection to extinguish my ways
until last ditch effort at watching a friend retreat

grasping heights over head...as it escapes
abandons a sorrowful face

you are so very right. sometimes we just have to be wrong.

At least that has been my continuous experience however, if you are in a relationship where you have to keep being the wrong one...it's time to be the gone one :). Thanks for reading Corey.

Be truthful to yourself before others and acknowledge your mistakes is what I get from this wonderful poem. It takes less pride and humility...Excellent...:)..........

Hey there Sami,

Long time :). I partly agree but people for the most part just don't do this, however I think it takes more pride and humility. People hate being wrong or saying I'm sorry. There is a rare breed who does. Thanks for the kind words and reading.
