I laughed with you,
I cried with you,
I shared my heart with you.
Now you say I am not true
you say I am not a friend?
Who Do You Think You Are?
I listened while you went through
the pain and suffering of
a bad breakup.
I rejoiced with you when you found
love again.
I tried to help you through
the problems
in this relationship.
Who Do You Think You Are?
You think I want your man?
I told my man and he just laughed.
You call me delusional?
You are the delusional one here.
I offered him the friendship of a sister.
Again I am clear and concise,
I said platonic, only platonic.
You form fairy tales in your mind.
You don't listen to the words I say,
only what you want to think I am saying.
You show my thoughts, my words,
to others,
without my permission.
Who Do You Think You Are?
You say I made you do something.
You say I made you feel what you do.
I am not that powerful to
control others in such a way.
No one is that powerful.
You have made your bed.
I tried to help you.
Who Do You Think You Are?
It is over, it is done.
If you look inward you will find I was
a good friend to you.
I think you will see that I was true
as true can be.
My heart is now filled with hurt,
pain, anger and frustration.
I allow myself to feel pain over
your actions.
You are not that powerful.
Who Do You Think You Are?

I thought I had a friend. I was obviously mistaken. Yes, things happen in my life and I withdraw. I have not been supporting my Gather friends, and I do think of many of you as friends. I do care what happens in your lives. Sometimes I need time to go off and deal with something. I have been absent alot lately with my problems with medication and now this. I want you all to know I do care. You are important to me.

I am so sorry for your pain. I know how difficult this must be for you right now. Take time to heal. If you need a friend to talk to just email me.
This photo just adds to the poem. It is a wonderful poem.
I'm sorry you feel so wronged. Do not allow them the power.
Hugs
You're a good person with a good heart. Feel bad and try to let it go- you have many other people who care about you. It's always hard when any relationship ends unpleasantly, but you're only responsible for your half of the relationship- the rest is up to the other party. Any kind of breakup does not define you as a person- how you handle it does.
HUGS!!!!!
Keep your chin up, and let your friends help you through this....
Love and peace dear one
You are my friend, and I am here for you in any way I can be. Your withdrawl only concerned me because of my concern for you. You are a person who sometimes need to just take the time to work on you, and I understand that totally. It is a shame that somebody has to let their pain misunderstand yours. You are a lovely lady. Hang in there
This is a wonderful pain filled with your frustration. Let it flow, my dear.

Thank you all for the comments. I really appreciate them!
So much hurt expressed.
This can be used in so may different circumstances
Thank you for sharing
I too am going through the same type of pain caused by someone I too thought to be a friend and almost more like a sister and poof! All blown up in smoke with me not even knowing that there was anything wrong until I hear it through the grapevine.
I empathize with you and know the feelings you are experiencing. Bad time of year for this to happen as this time of year I am usually depressed and anxious without any of the extraneous bull.
Peace be with you and I hope that you are able to rise above this soon.
Can you imagine meeting someone and as they are shaking your hand, they say, "Hi, I am going to talk behind your back try to steal your husband and be nice to your face." Wouldn't that just be simpler?
(12) Which of you takes pleasure in living? Who wants a long life to see good things?
14(13) [If you do,] keep your tongue from evil and your lips from deceiving talk;
15(14) turn from evil, and do good; seek peace, go after it!
16(15) The eyes of Adonai watch over the righteous, and his ears are open to their cry.
CJB
Two women; two choices Chana. You chose the right way. You kept your tongue from evil; sought peace and did good. He knows your heart is hurting.
Receive healing. You have sight she has blindness. It was only an accusation she threw at you. It didn't touch you. Be healed. You are loved.
