Thoughts

once upon a time, so simple and pure
relationships, they were the cure
stay a little while,
bring you a smile
it was really just so simple and pure.

its all different now..
agendas and plots and schemes
come close to the flame u will feel the heat
look at the rose, you will feel the thorns
it's all shields and swords.

why is it so different?
why must people change?
why must they betray?
why must they be fake?

who can you trust?
who cant you trust?
who is your friend?
who is just your acquaintance?

... i wonder...
labels are so loosely and simply used
love is now trash. it is synonymous with lust.
best friend can be the back stabbing bitch
good friends are people who you will never talk to again in 2 years.

is this what the society amounts to now?
