Letters To No One

Friends

Dear No One

'Friends'

There is no way to count how many friends a single person has had in their life.

There are true friends.

Friends that use you.

And friends that are only there for the laughs, then when it gets tough they leave.

In my life, my friends have left.

I've waisted 7 years of my life on people that don't even know what school I go to.

I bet some don't even know my last name.

These people were that fake type of friends.

I've surrounded myself with these people my whole life.

You see, fake friends are easier to befriend.

They are perky and except you with open arms.

Like a solider in their personal army.

The privileged ones become lieutenants, maybe even a captain.

But the fake friends will always be general.

They put themselves on that pedestal, and moulded the rules around themselves.

But once you have served your purpose, it's bye bye.

I've also had more than my fare share of friends that use you.

They only know your name when they need answers to homework or money.

Any other time they don't even know your name.

These people are the ones that at one point you were connected at the hip.

They might be your biggest regret.

And they are defiantly your biggest mistake.

Even more so than a fake friend.

True friends are the ones that are there through thick and thin.

Ive found true friends in the past year.

Sometimes I wonder how I got them.

How I got so lucky.

Even after my poor judge of characters in the past, I've made up for it but judging someone right for once.

True friends, no matter how true are the hardest to keep.

They came see the real you even when you can't.

They can remove your masks.

Your walls.

And you defences against the world.

They know the you that others only hear about.

This makes it easy to disappoint them.

And by extension, disappointing yourself.

But they are here to guide you.

I don't know how many times I have disappointed my true friends.

But I hope that if I have I can make up for it some way.

Even if I can't, my true grinds are the greatest thing that has ever happened to me.

Thank you, my true friends.

Love From

Me xx
