Life So Cruel

Well not mine...i already had my BS in life to deal with

A friend.. who i haven't seen since elementry....
I found her
and weird i actually remembered her.
She remembered me too.

We began to talk a bit and get to catch up in life and such
I told her my past... and how things went up to now...

She did the same
But.... She said life was cruel for her
People made fun of her
for her weight
how she dressed...

I hated that
To hear people say things that hurt...

But what hurt me more... was she said... I had it easy....

ME? I had a bad life sure not too bad but... I tried things... done things... hung around the wrong crowd ...
But still... me having it simple??

but not only that... she said... i looked different. I seemed different...

I looked a her confused... I mean sure... I dressed darker... but also not to dark as before...
But what she was focused on... was my weight.....
I lost weight... and she said she gained it... and more of it....
How do you tell someone... they will.... they can... if they don't have that confidence....
How do you tell someone you did things that just fell on you and you did the wrong things to make yourself feel better?

All I could do... was what i normally do... I just looked at her and said "things happen. Not always for the best... and the things people say... never important... You're beautiful you have to see it.... Not the weight that matters...not the look... its the personality people need to see... You are you and they can't change that. If they don't like how you look then they are not anything to you. they are nothing but people who want to bring you down..."

Life tends to be cruel...
but... theres always someone reaching out... but its up to you to take that help or not... never a right time... i learned that the hard way.... never a wrong time.... but when you want to tell... maybe... it may be too late...
