If You Feel A Friend Has Let You Down
You begin to wonder if you opened up too much,
Have you given more than you receive.
Asking yourself, are they really a friend,
Or just a passing acquaintance.
Could they not know what is expected of them,
And do they take friendships lightly.
Will it close you up to others,
Or maybe just become less open.
Can you forgive them for what they do not know,
That friendships last a life time.
Could it be they have been burned before,
And become distant to the closeness.
Have they really let you down,
Or let themselves down instead,
Or is it that they may not know,
How easy you may hurt.
No matter what a friend may do,
Or the things they may say,
Or even the forgotten words,
Once they become a friend,
A friend they will always stay.
To be a friend you take the good with the bad,
And you handle their ups and downs,
And try to understand ,
No two people will always agree.
Its the friendships that eases the pain,
Of misconceptions and misunderstandings.
