Friends or Foes

Friends or Foes

Memories of childhood friends,
Once so simple and carefree.
Now strangers abandoned to me.

Gone is the warmth I once felt and seen
Where they ever truly meant to be friends for life
or just temporary.

Deceptive friendships my joy deflated
Feeling Disheartened and betrayed,
I try to hide years of scars & pain

Who cares for the Lonely Hearted?
Will they ever know true friendship?
To distinguish between friend and foe.

Is it possible for the heart to heal?
To truly trust without fear of repeal.
Courage to dream my hope revealed

Married almost 35 yrs widowed in 2010. In the last few years Ive finally come to a place in my life when I realized I had been putting the key to my happiness in everyone else’s pocket. In learning to take responsibility for my own happiness, I’ve found Im throughly enjoying the freedom and simplicity of single life. I’M NOT INTERESTED ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS OF ANY KIND. Please honor and respect my journey as a widow who’s learning to enjoy simple healthy social interactions in a safe friendship environment.
