Friends

Ten times more
They whisper hate
And I wish they would stop
Because of late
I’ve seen these people
Time again
Hurting themselves
And those around them
When they’re all
Skinnier, funnier,
More perfect than I
And really it’s just
So difficult to try
And be the support
When they have to cry
Because they’re not alone
I hate myself too
More than I can say
In a poem or two
So I just suffer through
And some day I think
It might cause my demise
Being the shoulder to cry on,
Never the one to cry

(2013)
