Breaking The Bond

I"m so tired,
I'm exhausted,
I just can't seem to catch a break.

Your words,
Your power over me,
Soon it shall be no more.

You act like we're friends,
You act like you care.

But I know in a case of life or death,
You'd make it out unscathed,
and I'd be tossed in the flames.

I wish I could leave you.
I've already tried.
But you couldn't let that happen, could you?

If I'm not your friend you''ll "fall apart",
If I am your friend I'll fall apart.

But then again, I don't matter, do I?

You have an amazing power over your feelings. Though you feel as if you're lost and out of control, you're ability to contain that is incredible. I can see your heart in this, and maybe it's because you're my bestfriend and I'm a little bias, but I think you're going to do great things. Not everyone has the gift of words and I know that you do. So keep that in mind. You're strong, and I'd like to see a poem that focuses more about caring for yourself. A wise writer once told me that "I" will be the determining factor of my life. So in the next few weeks show me that. Show me how you can push past those people who don't care. In the end, not everyone will. The most important thing, is that you care for yourself first.
