Blamed MySelf
For Your Choices
Knew It Wasn't My Fault
Still Couldn't Blame You
Buried MySelf In Guilt
Not That
You Were There
To Notice
You Were Never There
Always Blamed MySelf
Told MySelf
I Wasn't Enough For You
That I Wasn't Worthy
Of Your Presence
Do You Even UnderStand
How Hard It Was For Me
To Function
While Carrying All That Guilt
You Probably Don't Even Care
That's Okay Though
It Took Years
But I Let It All Go
Finally UnderStood
It's Not Me
It's You
You Left
BeCause You're Weak
Not BeCause Of Me
You Left
BeCause You're Not Enough
Not BeCause I Wasn't Enough
How Did You Go Through Life
Knowing I Was
Carrying Your Guilt
Bet It Was Easy For You
Never UnderStand How Though
That Was A Lot Of Weight
For One Person To Carry
You Could Of Claimed Some
It's Okay Though
Carrying That Weight
Only Made Me Stronger
Gave Me The Courage
To Take Responsibility
For My Own Choices
And The Power
To Never Be Like You

When the Robots Took My Job
This is for RM Stockton's Write Club prompt for the month of April: AI Please allow me to vent. For "college," I went to a scam school that is now closed. We were promised internships that were never spoken of again after admissions, and we were promised help finding jobs. The first time I went to the career counselor's office, she was completely frazzled. She had no idea what to do with us, the film majors. The second time I visited her office, I let her know that I'd found myself a job, and she was visibly relieved.
