The Sad Thing
In several phrases I can sum up everything I've learned about life: It goes on, you learn to let go, you learn to hold on. You learn who the fake friends are, you learn who the real ones are.
But the one thing that I find sad, is that fake people don't surprise me anymore.
Loyal people do.

I really enjoyed writing this. This is a deep poem about how I feel about people. These days, you meet very few people who are loyal to you. In life, you learn to let go of something, or you learn to hold on to someone. Life's a journey.
