A great night
With even greater people
It brings me back
To where I began
It seems like a sin
To call those people friends
They were like drugs to me
Feeling great in the moment
While slowly numbing my senses
And blinding me to my pain
Until it was too late
One made me hate my body
Another pressured me into bad decisions
The last one put me through hell
So
Many
Bad
Friends
The abuse I’ve been put through
It altered me and my perception
They’re making plans?
I’m probably not invited
They’re whispering?
They hate me
Now
It feels like a dream
To have people I love
People I trust
People I know aren’t fake
For the first time in my life
I feel totally secure
Totally loved
I can hold these people close to my heart
Without being stabbed in the back
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how awesome my friends are now in comparison to the toxic friends I’ve had in the past. Also I wish I had a more creative title for this but I guess it’s ok to be straightforward ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
