Losing A Friend

Member since 2002 · Posted 29 Jul 2002 · 15 comments

I remember the times we spent laughing at the stupid things we said. I remember listening to your problems And you asking for advice In a field I had no experience in. I remember the misunderstood words we exchanged And the last I remember was the feeling I had Knowing you were gone. We were no longer a we. The feeling i had knowing I could no longer call you a Friend.

What you cannot come up with your own shit to say. Fuck it, if you can call it what it is then what the point. What are you, some fucked up Englishman who tries to save every trite fucking wannabes feeling. Tell them to get some fucking skin. If you want to show your poetry, send out your poetry, or let people read your poetry, then you better expect someone to come along and say it is shit. Quit being a wuss. If this poem were good, I would have said so. And what I said was constructive. She can get a job paying her 40K a year to write this shit.

Calm down tiger, you ripe my heart out. don't say such things. simply resort to calling me a hallmark card, its an fequently used insult on this site, i was simply providing a helpful cut and paste area, for the supernaturally talented and inspired to use. If it is of no use please feel free not to, use it that is, unless it is of, in which case do, feel free i mean

Fine Venusdemillo: I am sorry for the cliched use of Hallmark. Somebody call Ambassador....I don't think they pay as much and they are in Cleveland, but then again, Hallmark is in KC Misery. And I am not fired up. Sometimes I love hearing myself swear. It is like verbal yoga. Do Re Mi fa so la FUCK!!! See I feel better.

you can feel anytime, just so long as you don't squeeze. Bruised plums would not be an appropriate sweet.

a vessel's worth is in its capacity, its void, D.
