Whispers float in my ear and sing
About so many hurts and other things
Lies, truths, does it matter now

A friend was all I wanted for me
To laugh with, to just be
Was it too much to ask
To hope it would last

Stretched between two
Stories, gossip, from both of you
Confusion abounds in this place
I'm not a prize to win after a race

I'm only me, mixed up and blue
For now, I've run out of glue
Back to thoughts I had kicked
Blood drips slowly and thick

Go your separate ways
Leave me in a muddled daze
It's right that you leave
I'm tired; I need to grieve

You both are fine, and that's best
You've not cared as I recover and rest
I no longer can make choices I trust
I need to move on, let it turn to dust

Thank you, both for making me see
That true friendship was never meant for me
