I wrote this poem as an apology to my best friend. We'd been friends for half our lives, 12 years. Things happened that never should have and now we're no longer friends. I miss her. I hope this poem touches someone, because it didn't touch her.

i like ur poem, i guess because it kind of relates to what has happened to me and my friend or ex-friend. Although we are only 19 it turns and i only tried to help her in every way possible the friendship won;t survive. I loved your poem because of that.

This poem was really something I thought i could relate simply because it is almmost the exact same thing that happened to me. To say the leaste I have lost one friend that really meant a lot to me all because of trouble that started because of another friend

I really was touch my your poem. Its amazing how you think nothing can happen then boom something splits you guys up. Its so sad and you probably wonder why it had to happen that way.

Dear Tara, Today I ended a friendship of 26 years. I'm trying to get a grip. It seems difficult putting my feelings into thoughts without sounding like a journal entry (LOL). My friend Terri, well. she disgraced me. You could call it a "Betrayal of innate loyalty", coupled with complete disrespect for my spouse and I. She backed me into a corner and I came out swinging (fictitious pun)in response to her verbal attack on me. The bottom line is she hurt me, she hurt me bad! I don't know, I was searching the web for answers to questions like; What did I do to deserve this? I just looked no further and realized "I've done nothing" Her senselessness stems from manipulation. She's an innocently weak individual. Never the less, I read your poem and it hit home. Thank you

This poem really struck a cord with me. My best friend has just cut me out of her life and replaced me with someone else. I know this void will remain forever. Keep up the good work.
