Friend in Need

“I just want a friend.”

No, you don’t.

You are an addict that wants

someone to empower them.

You are a narcissist seeking approval.

You are an alcoholic,

looking for a drinking buddy

that will encourage your

bad actions, validate your

poor decisions, and even

drive you to the bar.

A real friend will say “no”.

A real friend will stand up to you

look you in the eye and soul and say

“don’t”.

A real friend is NOT always fun,

but will always be there

to help pick you up

afterwards.

And in the past year your addiction has rampaged out of control my love, and everyone sees it. Except you, and the “friends” you surround yourself with.
