Friendship

Strong, Bold, Understanding, Helpful
those are some of the characteristics I base friendship on.
Friendship is a gift, a present
it shouldn't be taken for granted
it should be real, not fake
who are our friends?
Don't use that word lightly.
Friends are forever and so they should be
other type of friends don't always last
'Boyfriend' 'Girlfriend'
We should cherish this bond we have called 'friendship'
How much do they mean to you?
Let them know..
But know this, a real friend will never GO!

HMMMM

Sometimes you realise who is actually serious in your life and you think whether they should be there. I'm sure we all do that, think about a person and you just think is it worth it...you can try for them but they won't try for you.

I just call it selfishness because they just don't help you as a friend should. You give them all the advice they need to motivate themselves but when it comes to you going to them for help, well then that's a different story altogether. So now I'm just giving no time to people that don't deserve it and they are getting removed from my circle PERIOD!

sorry about this one, I'm just venting some frustration about people who you think you can count on for support!

Friends are funny like that but one of my good friends told me this. "Term 'friend' is used very lightly and quickly and is a very strong word". That was from Camille. To be honest, it's true. Who is truly your friend and who would you consider an acquaintance? think about it

In regard to my poem

I know that most of you won't understand what I'm trying to say in my poem, so I'm going to try and explain it in a simple form.

Life has a way of amazing us, making us feel loved and appreciated... but life has another motive, whats that? It's to teach us a lesson. The lesson may be harsh but I'm sure that we get the message some way of another. Some of us may learn from it or some of us will try to be against it and fight it.

So in simple words. Why does life fuck us over? sometimes life will allow us to have good days, days that we will remember but other times life will just make us feel down and helpless, leave us wondering 'why?' Leave us questioning things that we shouldn't be questioning, say religion.

I'm gonna use an example here. life can give us 10 good days and then give you 2 bad days that will over shadow the good days. Therefore, life puts you on a stool and makes you feel like your on top of the world but whilst doing so, its putting a rope around your neck and kicks the stool from under your feet and leaves you to hang!

I know we all ask WHY?

OK, so I'm gonna try and write a poem. It's called why?

So it's over, I never thought it would happen
Time flew so quickly, I thought we were having the time of our lives
I was wrong. I feel stabbing, maybe in my back? With knives.
Could it be that this was perhaps a lie?
I thought with the time we grew
all I can say is... I never knew,
knew what though? That this would happen?
I thought we would become..so ripen? As the sun does fruit,
with time at least, our so called vision became dilute.

You left me at a time of need,
but I wasn't gonna plead.
All I have are memories now,
long like a long bough.

I tried to understand,
understand why you left me to stand,
all alone, but I stood
even though I never understood,
but still I stood,
stood tall,
with my back up against a wall.

Life, we were riding the waves together,
we were friends, until you changed your weather,
but whether we try again,
I know things will never be the same, again

All i can wonder and ponder is WHY?

New to this

Hmmm...

So I'm new to this 'blogging' thing. I personally think of 'blogging' as a way of expressing yourself through words, poems, images and so on.
I started this mainly because I seek understanding and I want people to know and try to relate to the way I think, also to be able to walk this path I call life with me, through my blog.
