After years of friendship, <br />and from words of another, <br />they decided that they no longer, <br />wanted to be a friend. <br />They even went as far as to accuse, <br />for things that were never done. <br />Now the tables have turned, <br />and the one with the words <br />has turned against them. <br />So they came back to see their old friend. <br />Unfortunately they cannot repair what they had done. <br />They don’t understand the hurt <br />they cause with their betrayal. <br />Now they want to come back, <br />not realising it will never be the same. <br />They can be forgiven for their blindness, <br />but trust they can never reclaim. <br />They will remain on the outside <br />forever looking in.<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-the-outside-forever-looking-in/
