Broken

Honesty.
That was all I ever asked. That was all I ever wanted.

I gave you that, I told you everything.
Because I do not want to hide anything from you.
Because I want you to accept me for who I was, who I am and who I will be.
Why can’t you give it back?

Promises you gave, promises you broke.
Does it mean you gave your word just to shut me up at that time?
Or you changed your mind because you just can’t do it?

I believed you once and let myself fall again.
I trusted in all the days that we were together.
I hoped in all the nights that you were at my side.
I had faith in what we had.
But once again, you hurt me.
And I don’t know if we can still pull this off, this time.

Thoughts on Friendship


I learned some time ago that I cannot be friends with everybody. From that time on, I chose who I wanted to keep and who I didn’t want to. Why? Because I know I cannot please everyone and I don’t want to try too hard anymore. It’s a good feeling to be with people I call friends, where I can just be myself. I could say or do anything without being cautious that I might be criticized. I know nobody’s perfect, there isn’t a perfect friend as well. But once you know a person is your friend, you'll know each other’s imperfection and accept them. That’s why I choose my friends, and I just hope that those I chose to be friends also choose me.
