Friends are good for nothing
every friend I've had has betrayed me
ten months ago a friend betrayed me and
cursed my religion
While I was comforting her
she read a passage that she wrote down in her diary
'I hate you,i hate your religion,
just because your a goth doesn't mean that you can ignore me!'
She clogged up my mobile with pointless calls and messages
I couldn't go anywhere without one of her friends asking me 'why have you been bullying her?'
insanity had reached my head,so I decided to go up to her and cry out
'LEAVE ME ALONE AND STOP RUMOURING AROUND ABOUT ME BULLYING YOU!!!!'
she eventually left me alone,but started a rumour of me cursing her to the grave.
At this point I felt like commiting suicide
and then never more.........

There is a lot of anger in this, and i can understand why, frinds like that arn't worth the air they breath. Harsh i know but true.
I've had a lot of insults because im a wiccan, the best thing to do is to shrug it of or twist it around so that it amuses you instead of hurts your feelings.
Right, now i've got the little advice bit out of the way, i'll comment on the poem.
I like the form of this as each stanza seems to reflect your feelings of being quite clipt and angry, where all you can say is a line or two. The flow of the poem is quite jagged and sharp and this also works really well.
Well done and good luck.
