Forgotten

I love my best friend to death, but the way he is acting lately is pushing me away..

 

Forgotten..

Why do I always end up

Being the one that is forgotten..

I am always there in a heartbeat

I listen to every word that is said

I even give out free hugs..

And I am the one that always cares

But what do they give me in return

The cold shoulder, ditch me for someone else,

Stop talking to me completely..

And the one thing that hurts the most is

They stop caring…

Why? I don’t know..

Its like I push them away..

Or they use me all up until they are better

Then dump me in the end..

I don’t want to call any of these people friends

But I didn’t think I would receive this treatment

From my best friend..

I need him the most right now

And he said that he is here for me

But… Where are you?…

To be forgotten even by him..

Is what kills my heart,

Makes me not trust

And lets me fade away..

Heartbreaking...I relate completely to this poem. I've asked myself the same thing many times. My best friend also turned his back on me, but you can move past it and it just makes you stronger and smarter. Good write.

How could anyone forget you? I wouldn't call it that, if you ever impacted someone you're never really forgotten! You're way stronger than you think,kylie! just give it time and i'm sure your buddy will be back and if he's not you could always drag him by the ear!

A sad, but great write!

:) all my lovelies,

This is sad and really touches the soul deep.. The raw emotion is poignant and flows like tears whispering in the wind. Thanks for sharing. This is one poem that I will not forget!

Beautifully written, being in that position (to many times to count) I understand the hurt.
it suck and I hope you feel better.

You are not, nor will you ever be forgotten dear friend. At least not by me. I have found that true friends in this life are few and far in between. I myself can count my "friends" on one hand and still have a few fingers left over. What I do have are alot of acquaintances. This is just a simple way for me to combat the woeful feeling that is portrayed in this piece. While it is very sad, I enjoyed it none the less. Great job QP.

Then dumb me in the end.. (I think you meant dump not dumb)

sad once again. I miss the happy you, but i understand how this makes you feel forgotten.
I have had the saem thing happen to me with a friend i had for 15 years. It hurts and i wish it didn't happen, but the best thing to do is just try talking to him about it.

So sad , I know that feeling so well , only when you need them you learn who is really your best friend. I hope you feel better soon, and get back to your friend... Yossi

I believe the best friend wants more than just friendship. I think he might want a new title and he leaves you because you have another. If this is not the case maybe the feeling he shares with you are meaningful but he just doesn't understand the true definition of BF? I hope that works itself out but in the mean time you can take a everyday life topic and turn it into poetry artwork. Another amazing piece. I feel like I know you because of your poetry.

Best friends do not forget; thats what makes them the BEST. It pains me to see you forgotten by anyone, let alone someone who you thought of as the one person you could go to. I hope he remembers soon... or if he doesnt that someone soon comes to show you that they care.
