on the surface-Part II

on the surface-Part II

I am torn about the meaning of friendship
so what is neighborly and what is kinship?
I am to have no expectations
my love is to be unconditional
to be numb with no sensation
like a dog with puppy love
the bones you throw
are not enough
it's only a game I finally see
shallow and self serving I foresee

friendship at the surface
of a flowing lake
don't be sorry
for it was my mistake....

Thanks Tony.  This was the second part to another one I wrote...unfortunately, disappointment in some friends..the older I get, it seems like for most it's all about them.  I disagree that all love should be unconditional.  At the moment you do something for someone, of course you do it without expecting anything...but once the opportunity arises to do something nice for someone, that's when you are able to see who is truly a friend.  It is what it is..thanks for reading..!! xoxo

Thank you Flower Girl. I'm slowly, finally learning to accept that not everyone thinks like we do.  When I wrote this I was highly disappointed at a couple of friends.  But honestly, we have a choice to accept them for what they are or just walk away.  It's like expecting the sky to be pink or something...it's just not possible...anyway, life is about coming from a place of love no matter what...and though challenging, I plan to practice it at all times..thanks for reading!!!
