The Circle of Fiction
Disguised friends who are really associates
People are passing time pretending to be relatively close
But behind closed doors they stab each other in the back with swords
Many exchanges are manipulated for a better play on words
So it's best to believe half of what is seen and heard
Some find refuge in speaking half truths
When the dominos fall one person wants the other person to lose
Believe this or not there is evidence in the daily news
Don't be alarmed but recognize this matter brings the blues
It's human nature or circumstance
But acknowledge drama will be born if given a chance
In the circle of fiction
There are no rules
Answers can be found buried beneath the context clues
Please remember to constantly ask yourself,
"How many real friends do I have around me if I have to choose?"

Post a CommentVery well written. Thanks for sharing.
I like this pieces,... makes me think
Too well written. Though I like the twist of creativity, it reflects so much about people around me. Fantastic piece. You are the best!
Real friends. We do have to ask ourself. I liked the poem. I thought that it had hit home and was very creative at the same time. I look forward to reading your others.
Very interesting piece. I notice this at my work a lot. Everybody is so nice to each other in person, but ruthless behind their back. It is foolish for me to think everybody likes me. I would hate to be in the room when they are really talking about me. You might have hit a small piece of humanity with this one.
Plenty of truth here , well said.
In true friends, one finds great treasure. Well done:)
That's the truth!
Very true. The word friend aswell as the word love are used to often and to lightly. Great write.
Tag. :)
