Aeylania: I was in the same exact situation with my friend of 11, almost 12, years. I sat there & took it for various reasons. Though she was a harsh personality, I knew she was misguided & needed someone to trust as much as I needed the stability of a close friendship. Not to mention she was my only way of not being homeless for 2 1/2 of those years, so I couldn't cut it off then. But after meeting my boyfriend & realizing what a healthy friendship was, I cut her the **** off before she could do any more harm to me. If she wants to self-destruct & bring everyone around down with her, fine, but I'm not going to subject myself to that.

Your poetry is good! I've been writing for a couple years now, but have had a horrible writer's block since last December. As my cognition has slipped, as well as my access to marijuana, so has my writing ability. But hopefully the block goes away soon. Keep up your writing while you still feel inspired!!
