Give and Take.
Do you know what that means?
It doesn't mean I give you my heart
and you rip it to pieces

I smash to the floor
you take 2 hours
just to notice
that I am no longer there

But that other friend,
if she is a minute late to class
you catch it
super fast

I cried almost all period
and yet you didn't even
look away from your conversation
with her

It took you 30 minutes!
We are supposed to be friends
Give and Take doesn't mean
I am the only one who gives

I'm sick of you
I'm done with you
Maybe I will take you back
When you understand that friendship is Give and Take, and that you also must give, and not only take.


The author's comments:
Relationships are give and take. If you are the only one giving something to the relationship, something is wrong there.
