My shame is your shame
Whence it came
Honour is no more
Pride comes before a fall
I am mortified by your disgrace
Cannot bear to see your face
Where innocence lies thereon
The lies you believe over me
And cannot see the hypocrisy
Where is the loyalty

Pecker up, Denise.
Go where loyalty is, avoid where loyalty is not.

Just when we need support and guidance from our friends the most.. many will turn away. It’s the moment we find who our true friends are.

I think sometimes they are afraid to step up, Jeannie. But it’s good to remember you can’t always count on them.
