I Need Love to be my friend

I Need Love to be my friend

A Poem by butterfly

I am trying to move on
forget that old life
i told you i wont be the side
i never did lie
it was you
he knew
I try to look for the new
i forget to reply who ever match let me talk to
in my heart I still crave you
but what we had is now yesterday
i am empty as a drum
i wont settle for a crumb
if you want my love
you got to step up
but it looks like you want another chapter of staying fucked
I don't want to be alone
i just cant forget the taste of you
its rehab I know
it hasn't been a year
I haven't found the one to just get under
no one gives me that same wonder
its a lonely place here in rebab
but I can't go back
he held my attention
but in the end it was pretension
when will i know the real you
or is this it
because the real you is bullshit
i dont wish you well
just like you didnt wish me well before
he forgot all those things he said
he forgets it all till he is in the bay area and he is reminded of the taste
we were the best
but it was all fake in the end
so I dont want to drink you again
I need love to be my friend....

I feel some real pain there!

One thing I could say is that, after a few years, when you look back, you will see that it's worth it that you have let go of the person.

Hope you feel better!

Pleasure is mine!
This is so deep... there is definitely serious pain here. I feel your words. I read it a few times and my eyes filled with tears. I felt disappointment, anger, being left... Thank you for sharing this, I really do. I will read it until my repressed feelings come out in your words. Hope you are better now.

Beautiful poem, it's scary to lose a bond you thought would stay for life. And it wrecks one more when the other is there, moving on while we're still stuck. You've presented the words in a very raw and real way and I hope you move on, Kudos!
