frenemies

sometimes we find an enemy with a friend.
sometimes we find a friend with an enemy.

and if that enemy becomes a friend, are they bound to be an enemy again?

because trust is such a vital part of any relationship, it's also the most volatile. oftentimes, i don't trust myself with making decisions. i'd just "kick it" and hope for the best. and as i've been doing that for the most part of my life, all i can say is "so far, so good."

but when trust becomes an issue.. what happens? and more to the point, what if you can't trust yourself to make your own decision anymore?

ann frank once said, "despite everything, i still believe in the goodness of man." this coming from a thirteen year old who spent a few years of her life hiding in an attic away trying to get away from the nazi rule. and i've been nothing but trying to live by that. if my life is as twice, thrice improved as her, surely i can see and believe in the goodness of man, right?

i just don't want to end up as the joke.

because what if the friend who became the enemy was never supposed to be the enemy?
and what if the enemy who became the friend was never supposed to be the friend?

**JBYAM: this isn't meant to hurt anyone. i've had a literary brainfart and i ended up questioning myself, and my nature.
