About the Poem

This poem is about a girl who has lost her best friend. She had tried everything to figure out why they have been fighting, but nothing works. She was always there when she needed to someone just to talk. But I guess when people get older they grow apart, sometimes because of boyfriends or family.

I wrote this poem, because I have this situation in my life right now with my best friend.

Friends Don't Always Last

I try to be nice, but you just laugh.
I'm not fitting in anymore, what can I do?
You don't realize, but it's starting to hurt.
When everything's just right, it always turns to dirt.

Help me, what am I doing wrong?
I don't understand, I'm there when your not strong.
I try to be happy most of the time, but it's getting harder now,
knowing your friendship isn't mine.

This poem explains exactly whow I feel around one of my "bffs". We used to be so tight, we had been best buds since 2nd grade and then this year she turned into a different person. One day she'll be my friend and the next she'll intentionally leave me out of things. I feel like I get treated horribly for trying so hard to be her friend. I don't know what to do anymore. I know all of your pain and I really hope things get better! xoxoxo :)

Excellent poem! =) I can especially relate to this because my best freind is doing the same thing to me. I help him give him stuff, he used to awknoledge it, but no he doesnt. He becomes freidns with this new kid, Jacob. He says hes a better freind, and said this infront of my face, because so much more cooler then me. It hurt a lot. I thnk the author becuse i now that im not the only one with this problem and one day ill find a good freinds. PHEW thats off my chest ! Thank u so much i owe u big time
Brittany
I really like the poems on your website!
samantha
i think that the poem tells the truth keep on writing . i think you are a kind of person that speaks the truth . i am loseing a friend too have fun writing
niki
life is a strange debarkle. the many facets that essentially 'make up' life,such as friendship (the central theme behind your poem) , likewise are queer. it sounds to me that you value this facet as highly as i do. i think some people just dont realise or appreciate friendship as highly as others. whether that is for the better or not
shomari
i really like this poem cuz i fell the say way about what happening in this peom with me and my freind i understand it !
rafiqah
yOu rOck!

chelsi
I really liked the poem. Reason why is because I used to be able to relate to what it say. To whom this may consern the only friend that will last forever is the friendship of GOD!
Michelle
GREAT POEM IT IS VERY TOUCHING IT ACUALLY MAKES YOU THINK ABOUT WHO ARE YOUR TRUE FRIENDS AND THEN YOU COME UP WITH THE ANSWER A TRUE FRIEND IS THE ON WHO CAN FORGIVE YOU

jus fell very sad now. atcually nothing i can do now to save the friendship with my 3 friends now. although i knew that v r in different world. but i really care about them. after so many time hurt by them. jus wanna cry now. . .
Taylor
This poem made me think that I am lucky to be so close to my friends, if half of the people I met had heard this a year or two ago maybe they would still have some friends. A person recently told me that she didn't like me and two other friends of mine, but that she still loved to hang out with our other friend. If I had heard this two weeks ago maybe I would have seen that coming.
kayleigh
this poem really relates to how i felt at one point during schoool
taylor

COUNTESS
i like i touch me good job
Amila
Well, it's really true that FRIENDSHIP don't lasts forever in life. Everything has an end when LIFE itself has an end, but those who value FRIENDSHIP cannot unfortunately accept that their FRIENDSHIP will come to see that day. Personally in the name of FRIENDSHIP I have been deceived so many times in life, I have always been helpful to my friends but in return I have lost them, they do don't even have the courage to make new FRIENDS though I have got many people to share my life, my feelings coz I fear that I may lose once again and a lost is not something that one can come out so easily as it is really a very big big lost. MAY THOSE WHO ARE READING MY MESSAGE ALWAYS BE FAITHFUL TO YOUR FRIENDS CAUSE A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED!
Kayla
This reminds me of my friend and me.
Betzy
This poem explaines exactly how I feel. Me and my best friend are going through some problems. Everyone is telling me to stay away from her. It basicly comes down to hr choosing between me and a guy. I'm scared tofind out who she chooses but along they way I've been getting hurt.
ELIZABETH

I realy like this poem and this is how I felt when my best friend ignored me . I also write poems and this on realy made me cry.
Tana
I really like this poem because it seemed to exactly describe what i am going through right now with the girl that has been my best friend since 2nd grade! It's all because of her stupid boyfriend and i just don't feel like i fit in with them anymore. your poem really helped my feel better and i think i am going to show it to my friend and maybe it will help her understand what is going on with me right now. thanks for taking the time to write it. tana clarke

Jennifer
This poem was great. It really got to me because one of my best friends isnt talking to me. It really hurts because I used to think that we were like sisters. I told her everything but I guess it wasnt true. Keep wrighting.
heather
I like the poem becuse it is so true. You can never always have the friends you want. People always have a down side and not having a friend you want is a larg set down.
Kelsey
This poem spoke exactly what I'm feeling right now.
Amy

Ebony

melody
i love them poem you have a good God given talent
Stephanie
(If there are any mistakes in the text don't be mad because English isn't my language that I speak. ) This is a really good poem, I think. Maybe it is because i recognize it in my own life. I don't know if you wrote it because you feel it or just for fun but I think you did it very good ! 10 / 10 !
foo
Friendships are two-way, and if it so happened that one party does not cherish it, then the other just has to know and perhaps let go of it.
Desiree
This is a great poem. In my life this poem is so true.
nicole
It's realy touching to me
joyce
i really like this poem! it reminds me of me and my "friend" im always there for her but it seems like she isnt for me and i dont know what to do. she always choose her boyfriend over her friends. idk
Hannah
This poem holds so much truth in it, it truthfuly reflects what many people feel during his/her teenage life, it certinaly reflected mine.
hectic

Victoria
I thought that this poem was sooo good! It is SOOO true for me and my ex-best friend!Your are every good at this!
Fredrica
I like this poem because I feel sort of the same way, that my friends don't really appreciate me. Especially because I HATE them all right now! I think this one poem pretty aptly describes how I sometimes feel around one of them, when she just blurts out a totally ramdom sentence about her favorite baseball team or website, and expects me to understand her, which I usually don't like a normal person. She's sort of in her own little DEMENTED world in which she thinks that just because she understands everything everone else does automatically too. Anyway, this wasn't really suppoed to be a rant about my friends. I think the poem is pretty touching, that's the point. : )
chwarayna
I think that this is one of the best poems I ever read in awhile I give this poem 5 thombs up
Catherine
I really liked this poem. I recently experienced something like this. She still hasn't forgiven me yet. It is basically over a guy too. It started with my other friend and her fighting, then I got tyed into it.
april
i can relate to this poem. i get sooo sick of friends only being ur friend if the time is convinient. that makes me really frustrated, but i LOVE the poem. u have talent, write some more! Thanx!
Erin
This poem describes me and my old "best friend" so much! Whenever things started going good, they just 'turned to dirt', and I was always there for her when she needed me, I always acted happy around her even though I wasn't, and I knew I would never fit in with her again. Sorry for the rant but I just loved your poem. Even though it made me cry. But that's good because it definitely touched me
sarah
i thought ur poem was really cool cuz it wuz like exactly how im feeling right now but i jsut couldnt find the words i really liked it!
Cathleen
i don't write poems and its hard 2 put my feelings in2 words but your poem helped me to understand my own feelings about my 'friends'
Ashley
I love this poem so much because it remind me one time when my friend did me this way. I thought that I was acting in the best manner that I could so another person told me that them ain't no good friends always talking behind your back and stuff. So that is the reason why I love this poem. So tomorrow at school I have this interpertation class and I am going to read this poem where all of my use to be friend of x friends. I hope this poem will change their minds about treating folks the way that they treat foks which is low-down.
april
I know exactly what this poem means. i am sooo sick of friends being soo nasty to me when i have done nothing but be there for them whenever they need me. Maybe someday i will get the nerve to send this to them. Thanx for the great poem! april
Marissa
i can't tell you how much your poem means to me. Me and my friend lily were like sisters. untill one day I was tired of her not being there for me like i always am for her. so she just stoped talking to me. i couldnt stop crying. but then i realized i had alot of other friends that cared about me. well,i hope things get better for you!
twyla
thats a really good poem i felt that way a while ago but then learned that i still have friends that love me and needed me right then, because i was blocking all my true friends out. So remeber this(theres always others who need you as much as you need your other friend)it took me a while to figure that out but i did and so will others i hope! Always twyla
tenesha
i give it all of my 100%

Anabella
HI! This poem really touches me. it reminds me of me and my friend. Well she isnt my friend anymore. Anyways this is a really wonderful poem i read it because me and my class had a homework asignment over christmas break. It was about poems of course. We had to make a book with 20 of our favorite poems and a picture that you have drawn and colored for each. These poems can be made up by you, or copied from someone ele's work. The subject of these poems must be as follow 4 poems about a sport 4 poems about family/family issues 4 poems about school 4 poems about friendship 4 poems about courage.

sierra
Well i have the same problem but im going though it right now and i dont know what to do.
Lindsay
I like this poem especially the last three lines about being there all the time, trying to be stay happy but it is getting harder. it's so true. sometimes i think that friendship are more treasured by one friend than the other. and it's always hard to realize that. but there is no reason for it either, and that is the hardest part of all.
Heather
I thought your poem was great. I had a friend that did that to me too and I know how it feels to be treated that way. I guess some friendships arent ment to be but I thought your poem was awesome and I would give it a five. Great job

Marie Katty
I love this poem. When I read it automatically an image of a person came to me and tears started to run over my face and I just could stop because everything in the poem describe the relationship now between me and my very best friend, Florise. Before, we use to be like sisters, like twins but now, we're like two strangers sitting across a room and it's really tearing me up inside. We don't talk the same way that we use too. I miss her so much.
Elizabeth

I really like this poem becuase even though short, it says everything with out the ramble about a relationship that many have at some point. Sometimes we like to avoid it, but its there with at least one of our aquantinces.

This is a very powerful and impacting poem with a great morale and point. Excellent!
Abby
I really relate to this poem. In fact I'm going to give a copy of it to my friend bcuz we a re going throug a difficult time in which she calls me names and well you get the general picture but I just wish she would understand "WHAT I DID" takes a lot of guts to admit I was wrong and that I'm Sorry! But sometimes she just doesn't understand those things.
rabi
It is a natural poetry related to every day life, every one in this life looses their friends ,it is a simple poem , i do not have the aesthetic sense of understanding the poetry but i easily understood it and really enjoy it , it reminds me a lot about my child hood. Keep writing , good luck. Thanks
Michelle

Shiinto
That poem is so beautifully written. it reminds me of what's going on in my world of friendship. my best friend and I are always getting into un-expected fights. I feel like my world is falling apart. oh, I'm sorry for babbling on and on about my personal life to you ^_^''' Just wanted to express how much this relates to my life as well
katie

Jessi
i really enjoyed this poem. it reminded me of friends i've had in the past, but now i have a best friend that i know is trustworthy and will be there for me through thick and thin, she is like a sister to me and no guys or anything will ever change that, this has been proven because she tells guys shes not going out with them just because she wants to chill with me.
Katie
I had saw this poem and i sent it to one of my friends that i am have problems with and when she read this right after she had called me and told me how sorry she was and we are now Best Frieds again! thanks girl!

This is exactly how I feel. Whenever things get good, something bad happens. And the friends who used to hang out with me comepletely ignore me. This poem gave me support that I'm not the only one going through this.

Move on with your life and accept the happenings of it. Thanks.
rock
all i can say is this really relates to my friend and i. my best friend is a guy and i'm a girl, i showed this poem to him and he was like,"did you write this poem?" because he thought i wrote a poem about our situation that we were in and him and i were really amazed that other friends could get into this kind of situation that we were in. anyways. i really love your poem.

Wilma
This poem is so real, cause I had to make the same experience. I thought it was my very best friend, but I guess it wan`t true friendship. I`m glad she let me go and didn`t wanna be my friend, so I was able to find my very best friend. I would be nothing without her. I guess it wasn`t meant to be, not for me and not for you. You will find true friendship,too. Just wait and be happy. I wish you all the best !
