venom

My friend once said, "life's a bitch!". Yes, it is.
There will be good, there will be bad.
There will be best friends, good friends and just friends.
But no one can hurt you like fake ones.
Ones who act like friends.
They look nice, sound nice, but don't have a heart.
They talk so smoothly, you wouldn't realize that they are actually spewing venom in each word. They bitch more than they talk.
They bitch about others to you; and bitch about you to others
Their words stink of lies and deceit, which makes you throw up in repugnance.
Each lie they mouth about you pierces into your heart with its poisonous fangs
so ruthlessly, you go numb.
Because you would have trusted them by then. And loved them genuinely.
They were friends who you went out of the way to help when they were in trouble.
Or when there was no one for them.
Or you were their proverbial "friend in need".
They don't know you after they get what they wanted.
And you are no longer good enough for them to remember.
Your part is done with.
Good for them; God bless and forgive.
Let no one do this to them, for those who stab don't know the pain of being stabbed.
Nor do they deserve any respect by being addressed "friends".
Why desecrate a relationship that's thicker than blood?
Even smiles have lost innocence.
Sick.
