such a grat poem, sugar! i love the way you play with words!

nice words, good writing , thanks for sharing

Excellent poem! I really liked this piece!

I agree to many friends can lead to problems, especially if they like to gossip. Lots of friends don’t have to be bad, however sometimes I see what you mean.

Great one. Thanks!

I do know a lot of people but I only have a few friends myself. And I also believe in keeping your friends close and your enemies closer….

I think this is a very cool piece. I agree with you.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to read/comment on this work,I truly appreciate your suppose.

Great poem. Please keep me. I like you. I wonder how many friends we can have in Heaven?

Sometimes you can overextend yourself and you have to back up and catch your breath.

Such a great poem. Love it.

mmm..Nice words and nice presentation and well-written. I really loved this poem! Thanks for sharing!

I get it. Too many friends but only few are precious gems.

True friends are few.

I’m lucky to have one true friend who is like a sister to me, you are so right in what you say. It’s when times get tough that you find out who your friends are. I like this poem, thank you.

An interesting premise for a poem. I thought that there were some pacing issue in some places, but overall, a thougtful project.

Wow… So true, I really like this, I too have a very good friend who is more like a sister to me as Kate said. Think she is my only true friend.

This is a good one. Looks like you have been attacked by the Energy Vampire.

Great poem!

Very nice and helpful, thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work, I like it

Nice poem, and I have to agree with you. Lots can go wrong when you have so many you call “friends”. Friends are great but know which are true, they are the ones who lift you up.
Keep writing!

Friends are soooo hard to choose
sometimes I rather have no friends then be surrounded by freaks
LOL!!!
Good poem

Really great material OhSugar. Flows real nice and speaks a deep conflict,deep conviction and shares resolution. Awesome job!

AC

Been here a lot. Sounds like you just need some space. No answering phone calls, quiet nature walk, hot tea, hot bath, peaceful music, peaceful thoughts. Perhaps that may help or like you said…get rid of a few.

Liked your poem.
Insanity can be a good thing…turns a blank piece of paper into a work of art.

Just like it came in your mind and out it flowed, beautifully and with grace.

This is the art of writing, a masterpiece!

Even guys, sometime have too many buddies, and need to take a second look at who is real or not. Good job

Good work and although I have not experienced what you wrote I know some that have…I enjoyed the read!

Well expressed and well written. Better One than a mob! Well done!

I agree with all above. Just one will do if they are true blue.
Well done.

Very well written poem
I liked it!

Been there done that!!!!lol..Praise God for positive friends!

God Bless,

Another great poem!

Well, i hope that your on track and that your sanity is back (lol) It can be a loney road with all those pack rats. All they do is nip at your toes. Girl, did ya hear about this? Did ya see who said that? Oh my goodness, STOP that!!!! That one friend will have your back. Nice poem…mom

Loved reading this and I can very well relate. I enjoyed the part that says:
The users and the losers are definitely out.
The whiners and boaster are now coasters.

Keeping track of lists of friends are hard, and honestly i’m not the type to keep in contact with my friends, but it doesn’t mean i don’t care for them.

Like you said,its better to have a few good friends than a bunch of fakers. True enough, but its also good to keep your arms open to embrace people.

Because who knows, some of the passer bys you let in might just be the one you’re looking for

Cheers~

I think this is more of a girl thing. Most Guys usually have a handful of friends and know which ones are true to the end. Nice article

I like this one a lot. How many of us can identify with this one. Too much of anything usually means trouble, and too many friends can surely reek havoc on relationships. Nice

How painful this poem is. Heartbreaking to think of anyone in some much pain. Great capture of emotions.

I am so there. I have lost my mind so many time trying to please all of my friends. I need to get my sanity back….. Thank you for writing this, for me!

It is always nice to find your way back to sanity. Nice one.
