Blame

When things don't go your way
and you've made a mistake or two,
how many times did you blame
someone to take the pressure off of you?
Maybe you trusted somebody
and took them at their word,
only to be betrayed when acts
of mistrust occurred.
It happens to everyone
you're no different from the rest,
life will never be perfect
choices are made some
with regrets.
You only have yourself to blame
but in the end you'll learn,
to choose your friendships wisely
look at the ones that worked hard to earn.
The gift of your heart you gave them
when you opened yours to theirs,
let go of the past and remember
a true friend always cares.
Blame is for the foolish a temporary
escape,
it cannot fix nor change
mistakes in life we make.
