Believing Wrong

I've believed in you for so long
You've been my best friend
But how could this after many years be so wrong?

You whispered in my ear every day and night
The beliefs you had for me
The confidence you had in me
For never accomplishing anything

Not sure why I chose to believe
In something so sadistic
In someone who never smiled for me
For someone who broke me

When I wanted to gain life
You were unhappy
Thinking of my in capabilities
I thought I could break these chains
But you only reinforced them seven fold
And now with you I'm scared to grow old

My point of view was never right
And you believed in every lie
That was spoken to your soul
And it left us with no where to go
May be I could have prayed it all away
But I think leaving
Has left me nothing but to rely on faith

Some of my struggles over the last year which has been eye opening, but has taught me a lot.

I love this. It shows how strong of an influence friends have on us, and how hard it can be when we have to turn away for our own good. I don't quite understand how the last stanza relates to the poem, but other than that, it really is good.

Thanks for the comment, it means a lot to me. Well for me the last part was to do with a partnership. Some people out there believe you can pray problems away, and that my point of view was always wrong according to the other person and that the other person never chose to believe what they wanted, they always had to believe in what others said and never came up with their own convictions, if that's the right way to put it. So just to give you an idea of what it's about. I really appreciate the comment, I love when people comment, and I hope it can make people think, and I,also hope it gives people hope in knowing they're not alone.
