Of Friends and Hypocrites....

"The difficulty is not so great to die for a friend, as to find a friend worth dying for." - Homer

Someone once told me...hard times teaches us of who can be a real friend and who is a hypocrite. Well...i realized that recently. I know that nobody is perfect. But why is it so difficult for someone to be a good friend. It doesn't require much. Maybe i am being paranoid...but then that's me. I would treat all my friends like family with hope they do the same. Alas...many differ. Some backstab...some pretend...some hypocrite...some deceive. Hmm...but i am also fortunate to find some who is true.And these people i will cherish. I found these friends during hard times cos they stood by me, encouraged me and healed me with words of wisdom. It's amazing how these testing times can help determine our true friends but it does. Well...if not the saying "Friends in need are friends indeed" wouldn't have existed. I can't promise these special people anything but to be there for them...stand by them and help them with what i can. God works in mysterious ways...and this is the lesson i've learned today...

"True friends are two people who are comfortable sharing silence together."

Don't cry to me.

If you loved me,

You would be here with me.

You want me,

Come find me.

Make up your mind.

Should I let you fall?

Lose it all?

So maybe you can remember yourself.

Can't keep believing,

We're only deceiving ourselves .

And I'm sick of the lie,

And you're too late.

Couldn't take the blame.

Sick with shame.

Must be exhausting

to lose your own game.

Selfishly hated,

No wonder you're jaded.

You can't play the victim this time,

And you're too late.

You never call me when you're sober.

You only want it cause it's over,

It's over.

How could I have burned paradise?

How could I - you were never mine.
