Forgotten

Sitting here in this dark corner
I look at these dingy walls
Wondering...
Have I been forgotten?
By loved ones...
By family...
By friends...

I look out these grimy windows
I see their blissful smiles
Heartbroken
I cry out
Desperately wanting to be heard
By my loved ones...
By my family...
By my friends...

I pound on the glass
Claw at the door
I fall down defeated and exhausted
Wondering..
What will i do if i have been forgotten

Institution

Here I sit
In this institution
Sentenced here by law
Waiting and waiting for this day to end
And the next to begin
My true self held back by these impregnable walls
Until the miraculous toll of the bell when my freedom is secure
Walking through those doors I mutter
“Thank god it’s finally summer I hate school”

My first love

My first love

You played the flirtatious schoolgirl

Using your friends to interrogate me

That night at the roller rink

I said said I liked you as a friend nothing more

Then at the final moment before the christmas break

I gave you a message telling you how i really felt

I felt at ease

Finnaly calm

Or so i thought

I sat with you in the mornings

Masking my early exhaustion

And unwittingly putting on a false smile

Slowly drifting from my friends

It took so long for me to realize

My so called attraction was just desperation

An attempt to fill my empty heart

Which only made the pain grow tenfold

Now we are back

At the begining

Hiding our hate from one another
