Friends

They’re all smiling,
They’re all joking.
I’m now seeing
What jerks they’re being.
They’re all ignoring
The pain they’re causing.
I’m just realizing,
I shouldn’t be caring
What they may be thinking.
That’s what I’m doing.
I’m knowing
They’re bluffing,
Back-stabbing,
Simply lying,
Deceiving,
Self-centering,
Cheating,
And stealing.
They had me believing
They were comforting.
They were just kidding.
They were just fooling.
