Your Greatest Foe Poem by Francis Duggan

Bad memories the memories we wish to forget
Of people we knew we wish we never met
A friendship that ended in acrimony and woe
A former friend can become your bitterest foe
Some with their old grudges a lifetime do live
They find it too hard to forget and forgive
Though you often see them in the park or the street
The people you'd rather not see or not meet
Your friends of the past but your foes of today
You pass them in silence look the other way
Bitterness can set in when love and friendship does end
Your worst enemy was once your greatest friend
On meeting you both pass in silence without saying hello
Your greatest friend has become your greatest foe.
