Happens over and over again,
which I keep saying it's okay,
when, in reality, I feel astray.
I feel bad for making them feel bad,
so I reassure them all the time,
but honestly I'm not mad, just a bit sad.
Little things they do and they apologize for it,
then I say, "it's okay don't worry about it."
I feel sort of as a pushover sometimes,
but if I express how I feel,
the friendship might be over I often feared.
Rather friendship or an actual relationship with one,
I tend to be to forgiving,
which can sometimes be taken advantage of.
If it's gone too far, I'll speak my mind
but sometimes I stay in the dark,
to keep them in my life.
