"...so farewell, best of luck, avoid roasted cabbages, don't eat earwax, and look on the bright side of life!"- Angela from Eldest by Christopher Paolini


To be alone

To feel empty

To be in constant fear

Of losing what you had

The ones you once held dear



They're gone now

Or so it seems

That's how it's turned out for me

I'm longing for one person to maybe look at me

They'll say,

Hey! Look! At that girl over there

Isn't she special?



But no one seems to care

That she's sitting alone

No friends beside her

Shunned, ignored

Those people must be monsters



A tear rolls down her cheek

As she faces the truth

She is not wanted

Not perfect

Like the others in the group



She was given a chance

To show her worth

But I guess she blew it

Because she's alone

Writing a lonely poem to the world

The author's comments:
I've gone through some pretty tough times, and poetry is what got me through them alive. It allowed me to let out what was going on in my life. This was written during one of those times.
