The Friend Of My Enemy

 As a very wise person did say long ago
That the friend of my enemy is my potential foe
And since we share one thing in common it does seem to be
That the enemy of my enemy is a friend to me
Some of our human friendships are based on mutual mistrust
Of those we believe to us who have been unjust
Though most do believe on live and let live
We can find it very hard for to forgive
Those who have taken advantage of us in some way
Any respect to them we never could pay
To forgive to many would seem a loss of pride
Suppose this is what happens when egos collide
For the enemy of my enemy my liking does grow
Though she or he may be lacking in the inner glow.
