The Unloyal Friend

I'm the nice girl
always at your disposable.
You know,
the one who's heart is so
big you could
ask me for any favors
or you could come to me
for advice at any unusual hour.
I'm the one who listens
and I mean really listens
to the nonsense coming out
of your mouth,
the one who keeps giving you
the benefit of the doubt
when everyone else has
already decided what
you're really all about.

I'm the girl who is always down
to have a good time,
so when all of your real
friends have kindly declined
I'm the one that you quickly dial.
And when shit hits the fan
I don't hesitate to
Rearrange my plans
And come over with
a broom and dust pan.
But no matter under how many
Circumstances or different
Occasions that I come
to your rescue
you always forget to acknowledge
my presence because you’ve
so readily taken me for granted.

I’m your second hand friend,
a delayed afterthought,
but really, I’m the girl who will
always be there for you because
you’re a tiny bit pathetic .
I know you think that I can’t see right
Through your facade but
I’m honestly not bothered because
I know it’s a part of your
 growing up…
and I hope you’ll actually grow up
but if not,
I won’t regret
giving my time or my love to you
because I’m the best friend
you’ve ever really known…

..and I honestly
feel bad for you.
