Pussies Lament
I never called you a pussy
even as I pulled her knife out of your back
I'm too kind for that
a thousand times I'm too kind
Bemoan you say
ruining a life you can't get back
we all saw you
we all still see
I don't do no pity party
while I watch you dump out poison in the sea
Snitches get stitches
but man pull up those britches
you had your shot
now get off the shit
you say she hit but I see those nostrils flare
as you stare into the emptiness
grasping at every broken doll
one eye, one arm,
only causing more self harm
The hands on the clock are turning
So move on and take yours off your cock
even as I pulled her knife out of your back
I'm too kind for that
a thousand times I'm too kind
Bemoan you say
ruining a life you can't get back
we all saw you
we all still see
I don't do no pity party
while I watch you dump out poison in the sea
Snitches get stitches
but man pull up those britches
you had your shot
now get off the shit
you say she hit but I see those nostrils flare
as you stare into the emptiness
grasping at every broken doll
one eye, one arm,
only causing more self harm
The hands on the clock are turning
So move on and take yours off your cock

Whoa! I guess you figured out how to tell a friend that, Tim!
Sometimes you have to hit them(friends) over the head with a hammer.
Great job, my friend!

I've told him more than once. It just doesnt seem to sink in to that thick melon of his. I'm sure he realizes it and I know it's hard to let go but damn dude you're ruining your life over something you can't control. Thanks Matthew

It's hard, to say the least, to tell a friend to get his act together. Love those last two lines. What about showing him this poem, JusTim? It's a powerful, honest piece, and unless he's a "pussy" he should be grateful.

sometimes you just have to give them some distance and let them figure it out on their own.

A bit of a different tone for you. Sometimes you just can't help or stop them. They're gonna do what they're gonna do and all we can do is watch or walk away. Best of luck with your friend
