When you eviscerate me from your life I plunge into a vortex of emotional strife Not only are you cold and fallacious Your offensiveness is also mendacious Is it not enough for you to victimize that you have to constantly criticize Tell me who do you think you are Your actions are crazy and bazaar You are so angry that you see scarlet red I no longer hurt - you bewilder me instead June 29, 2018

I am moved by this, because I see this in the female realm all of the time, especially between preteen girls and I wonder at the swiftness of their complete indifference and coldness to someone who was for a long time their go-to friend. Well done!
