Lessons.

They laughed & shook their heads,

They left her doubting herself,

She tried to change her ways for them,

It was no use, she failed again.

Lesson learnt, lesson lived,

All you can do is forgive,

You can't live for them, not you,

It will only take you askew.

They thought of her like a little child,

Her miseries made them smile,

She tried and tried to seem headstrong,

But their malice seemed to last lifelong.

Lesson learnt, lesson lived,

All you can do is forgive,

Your tears matter not to them,

Don't let them stop or let them stem.

They used her for their cause,

They let the meanness pause,

She found out in the end,

It was play, it was pretend.

Lesson learnt, lesson lived,

All you can do is forgive,

Their hearts are completely sealed,

You can't make them feel.

They gave their word, they lied to her,

They told her their friendship wouldn't defer,

She found them walking far away,

Like they never knew her anyway.

Lesson learnt, lesson lived,

All you can do is forgive,

They will not ever care,

They'll leave you in despair.

And now while they leave her on her own,

Like something used and thrown,

She does not mind, lets them go on,

They're not two-sided, they're hexagons.

She has her lessons learnt, lived them too,

She knows who she should stick to,

She does not mind that they forget,

'Cause in the end, they will regret.
