Wallflower’s Poems

by Silver Shadows

Poem 3

Time: Breaking up with her only friends
Place: Her bedroom

---

Friends will surely drift apart,
I don’t believe in friendship as an art,
I like to photograph them so they last forever,
But the friendship that I have ended will be back never,

They are better without me,
I know,
In front of me they should now flee,
I made sure of that,

When I saw their tears,
I knew that they can grieve sooner than later,
I don’t deserve to live on this planet,
I won’t make a difference no matter how hard I try,

My emotions are as hard as an eggshell,
My head is screaming as loud as the Liberty Bell,
My tears flood my eyes,
As I finally, finally begin to cry
