You know who you are (Yea, right)

By veingo

An old friend

(Term used so loosely, I had
to scoop it up off the ground)


I told you,

You can't trust someone, who won't trust anyone.

You should have listened.


Same age, same story, same situation.

We should have a lot in common.

But, while I was living life, you were avoiding it.


(One of those "some things" that never changes)


So we meet again, and I try again, And again, you disappoint.


We are alike, in so many ways,
yet you are miles behind.


Want to know what I've learned Kid?

Fuck you!
Get your own answers!


Yes, I'll cry you a river, but you'll
have to bleed one first.


(And to think,
yesterday, I was feeling old)

    WOW! I loved how you fooled him into thinking you were going to say. I agree, he should learn on his own. We work hard for our own "getting it", he should work for his as well! Awesome piece V. You rock hun! Julia~
