Old Friends

Ghosts of people I was acquainted with,

Been years since I've seen them,

When I dream of them sometimes I feel happiness,

But then I remember the things they did,

It's sobering and keeps me from making the same mistakes,

If you can't love me at my worst, you don't deserve me when I'm healed,

Sorry for my part in all of this,

But you didn't care about my friendship,

So, I guess we are even now,

That's why you are my old friends,

Because the only people in my life I want,

Are one's willing to ride to the end,

Not one's who suddenly pretend to like me because I've changed.
