Abandon
<p>I looked up to you when I was sad.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I always laughed when you were by my side,</p>
<p>until you went behind my back and lied.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I felt so betrayed and so alone</p>
<p>and began to realize your true colors that had shown.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You hurt me so badly that nothing can compare.</p>
<p>You were the one with whom my secrets I thought I could share.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You helped me through bad times when people were so mean,</p>
<p>and now that you're gone, I feel so deceived.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You lied to my face, one only could tell.</p>
<p>You left me alone; now I feel like I'm in hell.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have no one to turn to to ask for advice.</p>
<p>Your leaving me like this is like being squeezed by a vice.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm in pain; it's not easy to see, and since you've been gone,</p>
<p>I have no one beside me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I try to find more friends that are as fun as you,</p>
<p>but the more I try, I realize there is nothing more I can do.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You're gone forever, whether you know it or not.</p>
<p>Me being stuck in this world alone like this, I'd rather be shot.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Goodbye forever; you ruined my ability to forgive,</p>
<p>and now like this for the rest of my life I shall live</p>
