1=Two faces

Get up, I'm exhausted. I'm extremely tired.

But so is this world

Sit down, You're fine.

But how about that overdue girl?

No one cares,  nobody

but then is hugs and kisses when you're known as somebody.

Only there, when you're beneficial 

they always want the best side of the stick.

But never rides when both sides aren't good

so they never stick.

So I admire the people who stuck around when

it was bad 

cause they maintained in my lane 

despite the light things I had.

But I always had one thing

PASSION.

'Cause success brings stress

therefore its the true assassin

Passion is one powerful word, in literature and in life! Stress is an every day word that we all experience to one degree or another. Success for one person brings envy into the faces of your contemporaries. Some will become back-stabbers to you ie. your assassins. Keep writing, let your passion be unleashed for us to read. We see a writer in you!

[ANTO]

Sadly there are some of Lifes truths spelled out in black and white here. Stress identified as the antithesis of passion for one. Your first poem CRZ? No wonder I keep coming back for more.

[TL Boehm]

Smart smart writing. Those last two lines sum it up so well.

It's a wonderful poem, I loved it :) it's sad that it's true, success brings a lot of unwanted attention and you'll know who your real friends are by who stuck around when no one knew you :(

[Sarai Lee]

The real friends are the ones who stick with you when things are bad, love you even when you are a jerk, and celebrate with you over every little victory! You've captured that well here!

[B.J]

Good work keep writing. Keep writing

[Douglas White]

The subject matter is something entirely TOO easy to relate to. There are far too many fair-weather friends, and not enough REAL friends in this world.

[Chandradhish Ghosh]

Considering this is your first poem...it is very well written!

[sakshi arora]

[Vani Jalagar]
