Here's a revised version of a poem that I shared with you before. I revised it so I could fit all the new things I feel, now that I am experiencing it again. *sigh, sniffle*
I know I haven't been doing that Portfolio Period thing for quite a while, since I sort of forgot and was rather bored with it. And anyway, I had to give my portfolio back and I forgot all the stuff I wrote in it, save a few poems.
So here's one of my most emotional poems, revised. I felt this when I was left behind by the barkadas of my elementary school, and I feel it now when I was made so happy and my hopes brought up, then was betrayed and crashed down again, by my first year high school class. Topaz 09... this is from me to you.
Left Behind
You see themAnd so do IWe walk towards you allYour lips curve into smilesYour eyes brightenedTwo listen to another's jokesMore laugh with merriment in their eyesSeveral chatter further awayI watch you allNot really doing anythingJust staying, listening... waiting.
Then you all stand upAnd group togetherWithout a backward glanceAnd I am left behind.
The door is shut soundlyIts loud bang echoing in my soulShattering the dam of my heartFinally allowing the tears to flowA mad torrent releasedIn the hurt of betrayalThe bittersweet painIs all I have left.
I look on from the sidelinesAlone and unlovedAs you all go through your pacesYou all seem to be whole...
... and I am only one.
