Funny?

I think it's funny

how you string me along

thinking I believe everything that flows out of your mouth

which just silently screams falseness

 

I think it's funny

how you think you can pick me up and drop me again

like a child being reckless with a toy

not realising its true worth

 

I think it's funny

how you think your lies are disguised as promises

and you think I won't see behind the mask

of your priorities

 

I think it's funny

how you claim to be friends with me

but really, others are more appealing to you

whilst I'm just a ghost in your background

 

I think it's funny

how you tug little pieces of my heart away

because I believed you were my friend

but you do not care about my heartstrings snapping

 

I think it's funny

how your little stabs of supposed superiority

are reflected in the pinpricks which you force into my back

which deflated all my confidence and self worth

 

I think it is very unfunny

how all of these pointless metaphors

are what I feel our friendship finally became
