"They're dropping like flys"
I can't seem to impede those words from running through my mind.
As each day slowly wastes away, I learn to hate a little more.
I learn that trust is my least favorite word.
I learn that the shit that is spewed out of your mouth is meant as a smokescreen.
Yet, once again despite your best efforts,
I casually stride right through it, this time hoping
That what I may find on the other side is different than all the other times.
But it's not.
We spent the longest time as bitter enemies until we decided to work things through.
Bad judgement on my part I guess.
I honestly thought I understood you and you understood me.
Now I'm left trying to understand what's its like to let go of a friend.
Now more than ever those words I always said to you ring true:
The whitest lies are blinding snows.
Well, I can see now, and I can see you for what you really are. Sorry for stumbling over the knowledge that blew this thing wide open.
You were one of the two people in this world I truly, honestly trusted; with my secrets, with my troubles, with my life. I'd try to pull the fucking knife out of my back, but I know I can't reach it.
I'm tired of watching my friends drop like flys. I'm tired of waiting for one to finally stick. I'm tired of you taking me for granted and insulting me with transparent lies. Look around. I'm not there anymore, am I?
Each day passes and this gets continually more difficult. I'm not feeling up to the challenge anymore. I'm tired of sitting here.
Staring at a blank sheet of flypaper.

It's a very unfortunate thing, that so many people let their selfishness get the better of them. It happened to one of my best friends.... It's still happening to him. But anyway, nice writing.

What difference do you think you can make? One single man in all this madness...?
