Back Stabbed

EleanorRoosevelt's picture

There's something in my back

Something unseen, but I've been told it's sharp

Your fingerprints cover the handle

My blood in on your hands

Your words cut deep

Your friendship once was special

I think of all the time we've shared

All the laughs we've exchanged

To know they were for nothing

Guess I don't need you

Because you clearly don't need me

To you I'm just an incompetent fool

Or so you've said

Told myself that you didn't mean it

Told myself a lie

All to save what we had

Don't act like we're friends

Don't smile like everything is ok

This knife you've placed in my back

It causes me pain, everynight

To see you reminds me of that object

That has been forever placed in spine

No, you didn't have to stoop so low

because you're just somebody that I used to know

Someone forever lost in my life

We've all felt this way. I

We've all felt this way. I always love writings that express the feelings we've all been through. Each person has their own way of expressing this. This is very good in that perspective. Good Job.
