Ok, big post today!

Here is a poem I've written because of my best friend (who is definitely NOT my favourite person these days)

Empty Words

You promised nothing would change.

You promised you would never leave.

But where are you now?

I looked, unseen,

while you drank every word of flattery and lie.

You chose them,

and I turned invisible once more.

You

That poem hit me so so hard. Thank you for posting it.

My best friend of years and years and I don't really speak anymore because she has gone all silly over a guy that has cheated on her and been horribly evil to her. They live together now because he convinced her that her mom was no good so she moved out. He's terribly controlling and she doesn't hardly ever go do anything fun because he will interrogate her upon her return. It's just so sad, but I can't help but be angry at her for believing all his lies.

I can understand you perfectly because I've lost more than a friend. My former boy best friend "abandoned" me after a 14 year old friendship just because he was jealous of my other friends. I miss him a lot sometimes but I guess I'll just have to get used to it. Lucky I've got this one now (although I really got angry at him on Friday). I hope everything will turn out for the best for you and for your friend and that she'll eventually realize what a jerk she's living with and go back to her friends and family.
*hugs*

Hey Barbara!

Yes, I finally get to read a post of you! I think you are an amazing writer. I like both the poem and the story. Do you have like a writers account on fictionpress or something? Your work deserves to be seen!

What I really like is how everyone can relate to your problem. Everyone has probably lost a friend somewhere along. I have lost many and don't have any friends left besides my LJ-friends and a girl I met in school this year. All due to my illnesses and all promised not to leave. Still, I really do hope that things work out between you and your best friend. Without friends, what is there?

And I liked your story too, although I haven't read the first chapter yet. Tomorrow I have a jaw surgery and afterwards I'll be bedridden, so that's a good time for me to catch up on all of your writings.

I'm very curious to get to know the writer behind these beautiful works. And again, thank you for taking your time to look into my life. I appreciate it a lot.

Love,

Elly

No, I have nothing of the sort: I actually never heard about it but I'll go look for it then
