Happy
Birthday
Melissa
Etheridge

Thanks
for the
music!

Hope
your
day
was
wonderful!!!!!!

Once

Once you were a friend of mine
now I struggle to keep my distance

What did I learn that was so bad
that you will hurt for no reason
that it doesn't matter to you how
people feel, including me
that to be able to hurt someone
is your biggest entertainment

So I called you friend once
I'm not sure how and
now I mourn a friend gone
I still love you but never
again will I let myself be
vulnerable to your
stinging
slapping
hateful
words

You must be so lonely
