Write about a friendship that has been slowly drifting apart. A friendship where on gave his/her 100% while the other barely tried to put efforts, where one understood the other with one glance of the face while the other couldn't distinguish the simplest emotions of the first one, where the first one cared less because s/he already has many other friends while the other one barely had anyone to depend upon. Cover all these aspects and write a poem filled with angst. See if I could feel the pain in your words. Don't forget to tag me~

Daughter...I tried!

Have you ever given your all to someone only to have it thrown back in your face

Have you ever tried so hard to make somebody happy always putting yourself in second place

Have you ever wondered how could I have made things better where did I go wrong

What or when did it all change why does it hurt for so long

Have you ever felt so emotionally exhausted that you feel in time you will fall

So you keep a strong heart knowing just one little breeze would bring down it all

Have you ever blamed yourself when you only did your best

Even though along the way you lost so much but at the same time still felt blessed

Have you ever tried?
