Running out of escape routes.
Each way I try is blocked.
Failure just deepens my mood.
Way too far I’ve walked.

Empty fields of desperation bloom at random.
Every tactic I attempt, just fails to succeed.
Instead, flowers of despair pop up with abandon
My hungry heart won’t take what I feed.

All the intersections turn to a dead end.
My pathways have been extinguished.
Creating wounds that may not mend.
My friends ignore me, what is it I did?

The people who I used to laugh with,
Have turned. No longer do they turn to me.
Divided up into a group, and I guess I didn’t fit.
I don’t know who they want me to be.

If I try to rekindle the friendship, I get nowhere.
They drive me away in all the small ways that hurt.
Given up on Karma, getting them back, I don’t care.
I have to be a certain person for them. But who did they meet, me or her?

I think they thought I was someone else. An actress without a script.
I didn’t pretend, I tried stay strong. I watched the tinder accumulate.
Perhaps I struck the match. I can’t kid myself; maybe I might have saved it.
All I know is, I’m left alone. They notice. It’s my payback or maybe just fate.

Running out of options, dangling on a string.
All I can do is wait till I can go home.
Wish I could fly, but I ain’t got no wings.
Clipped when I lost my friends, I’m alone.

you are never alone, and if they turned on you so easily, they were never your friends.

I know one of them is. She and I were really close but I think she is being pressured into it, and not going into it of her own will. The others I dunno. One is my neighbor, and the other was her old best frend but then i got close wit her earlier in the yr and then she dropped me later recently.  Earlier in the year I was friends with everyone and not popular snotty but I hung out with everyone in my grade and we could chill.  Then we got close so I don't know how true she was. The other used to be my best friend and she ditched for my neighbor b4 my otha best frend left for chicaigo

I'm impressed. I really liked this poem. I haven't been here for a while so it's good to be back. Poem's like this remind me why I come here.

Sad poem though, I could relate to it. It wasn't long ago that I felt that way. Things have to get better before they get worse.
