Ex-Friend

There was a hope
However steep
That our friendship
We could keep.
But at this time
I’m going to guess
That because of
All this mess.
We can’t talk anymore
Thanks to some adult,
Though, why only in me
Do they find all the faults?
But now I don’t know
What I am going to do,
You kept me on the right path
But then my soul you slew.
I was hoping that
Things would get better,
Though now I see that I
Am held by the chain and fetter
Of what I have done.
