quicksand of hope

Contributed by riverofwords on Wednesday, 19th February 2003 @ 09:20:00 PM in AEST
Topic: oops



i trusted you best friend
you cast that friendship
with betrayal into the garbage
my partner ,my lover ,my all
you changed that love
from an oasis to a desert
work colleagues
you wear two faces
one showing friendship and trust
other was like i was dust
family of mine
you showed your mettle
in my hardest of times
cast out like leper
when i needed you most
man of god when i turned to you
you with no time
cause you were late for a meal
strong drink and the pills you are my comfort now
you will ease all my worry and woe
the silence of death will comfort me now
life is a quicksand that sucks you down
when you reach the bottom there is only
one way to go
but then you came without even a thought
strong arms wrapped around me so gentle and kind
god my only true friend

Well now that was deep, but oh so true, the riverofwords, has taken me in this is indeed a poetic masterpiece.
