In an upside-down garden

Sitting here, all alone.
Nothing to do,
nowhere to go,
no one on the phone.
I hate the way I feel,
when you're not around,
when you're taking a break,
it doesn't seem real.

So here's to you,
hope you're having fun,
a toast to you,
maybe you've found someone.
So here's to you,
the one who's not there,
a shout out to you,
just know that I still care.

Is there another girl,
someone better than me,
someone who can show you,
the whole entire world?
I hate the way you make me feel alone,
sometimes, and I don't know,
why I even call anymore,
there's never anyone home.

So here's to you,
hope you're happy now,
best wishes to you,
hope you'll come back somehow.
So here's to you,
the one I think about,
here's to you,
just another shout out.

Just a little rant. Feeling kinda lonely at the moment.  Justin's not around.  He's busy planning the party that I haven't been invited to yet.  I got him a present anyway.

Someone once taught me that it doesn't matter what other people think of you as long as you like yourself.  That's what I live by.

It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that.

Nice rant!  Doesn't it sucks that the person who is always the break-up-er is always out having fun every second of every day after the breakup, but the break-up-ee is always home, feeling sorry for themselves?  Yeah, I can relate to this poem.  nicely done.

I liked this one. It sounds sad, but I'm sure everything will turn out fine in the end  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hold all of my hope in the simple fact that if it's meant to be, it will be.
I don't sit around feeling sorry for myself after I'm dumped though.
It's just because I dont' have any friends where I live now so there's nothing to do.

Being lonely sucks...  But the poem was very good.  Good write about a bad situation.

If someboy laughs at me, does that make me funny or just plain stupid?
