A poem i wrote today (as of December 17th 2024)

This is a poem i wrote the day this page was published, as means to get something out of my system. I'm usually very selfconscious about my writting, to the point that I barely show it to anyone, even my close friends. It doesn't help that my teen years were spent during the peak of the cringe culture era, where being ostracized and even harassed for being true to yourself was seen as "normal"

I felt the need to share this to you all, as my close friends were supportive to this poem I wrote as a vent towards a very fucked up falling out towards a former friend of mine.

Fair warning, this is a bit dark, so if you feel like you can't handle stuff like this right now it's okay to take a step back from this page. Otherwise, I hope you can appreciate this poem. I hope i can eventually try to experiment more with writting later on

We were friends for 3 years.
You seemed so nice and caring towards everyone
A really positive force in general
Someone who was really lovable and caring to the world

At least that's what I thought you were for a long time
That's the story you sold for many people including myself
Just to gain our sympathy and care
And to make people ignore your true self.

Sometimes a true self can be a wonderful thing
Like a butterfly freeing itself from a pupa
But other times it can be a very hurtful thing
Like a wolf inside a sheep's clothing

I believed that you would be like a butterfly
But i guess you were more like a wolf after all.
I thought that you would grow wings of hope and change.
But instead you ended up using your bloody teeth against others.

3 years of being on your side, supporting you.
To make you feel like you were the butterfly in your own story.
Turns out you were nothing but a sick and twisted wolf
Who has taken people's trust of you for granted.

And you used all of that for your selfish needs.
You made me believe you were selfless and caring for everyone.
And yet you did so many fucked up shit behind everyone's backs.
Well, that is people finally discovered your true rotten self.

I hope you can go fuck yourself.
