We all have them don't we
The friends that bring no benefits
To the relationship at all anymore
They may have started out sweet
And caring and interested in us
But that seems to have passed
Never to return it seems to us
Because we try to reach out to them
And get ignored for our efforts
It would seem the least they could
Do was to express interest in our
Work that we put out there for them
And all the others who do care
But they are not friends and friends
Should be there for us in our lives
So what is the problem and the deal
Our friends who will not be a friend
Are we invisible now or unimportant
To your life now because you have
Other things that take your time and
Your attentions away from such as we
We see how it is and we will accept it and
Forget that once we were together
But now are apart and that won't change
Whatever we try to do because you have
Made your decision or maybe just
Forgot that we exist or ever even did
So peace be with you old friends of yore
Who slip away and stay away today
Tomorrow and always forevermore.
