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. Belinda.* Expect nothing, Prepare for anything. |
