Everyday of my life, grows exceedingly harder, <br /> <br />My legs have grown weak, I can't go any farther, <br /> <br />The weight of my conscience is crushing my spirit, <br /> <br />Others shout to move on, but I refuse to hear it, <br /> <br />I turned a deaf ear to encouragement, a long time ago, <br /> <br />In the days of my anguish, filled with sadness and woe, <br /> <br />I refused to be happy, quite content in my misery, <br /> <br />Putting blunt anger, in the place of my chivalry, <br /> <br />I shut down all my kindness, I seem less at ease, <br /> <br />I became more independent, I do what I please, <br /> <br />I care not for your feelings, or your selfish, plain wants, <br /> <br />I've ignored your objections, and your petty, ignorant taunts, <br /> <br />You are nothing more to me, than an obstacle now, <br /> <br />But to you, your the king, and you want me to bow, <br /> <br />I refuse to obey you, I demand what you owe, <br /> <br />And in the event of my payment, I should like you to go, <br /> <br />You broke the trust in our friendship, you're the one to blame, <br /> <br />Now leave my life permanently, and I'll forget you ever came...<br /><br />Derrick Andrews<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/friendship-is-a-burden/
