God giveth and God taketh

A beautiful flower
thorns seeping of poison
A bright smile
beneath a sheet of hatred
She lied, she schemed, she damaged
and rejoiced with my suffering

and then she wondered why she has not my friendship

She was rich with love
From all that was around her
She had praise, admiration and peoples approval
but it was not enough for her sick self esteem

The days have turned
and I learned
I bloomed
I blossomed
as Life started to smile at me

But to her Life was a burden
She reaped what she had sowed
and now she is friendless
loveless
and dying
