I feel like the forgotten one
The one who gets the late invitations to fill up space
The one who is feeling left out every time
The one for whom no one ever has time
Maybe it is my fault
I can't be the man I want if my inner child is still hurt
Can't heal if the object is still stuck between my chest
Feel like my life has been an elaborate test
I want to push everyone away
I want to find happiness in loneliness, there has to be a way
I don't want to tell people about my problems
I want to fight myself alone, no totems or even emblems
Maybe I am beyond repair
I remember hoping grace found me in the nick of time
Seems like I was wrong, it missed our date
It got lost and found me way too late
The more I push these thoughts down, the more they come up with more
And now I find myself raiding liquor stores
I feel like I am both the prey and predator
I can't even think straight no more
I just....
I mean....
Maybe if.....
What about if ......
No Tulips, no Loop or even Giraffe
No Squirrel girl or Jay, this Moses has no staff
Why part the red sea when I can drown in its depth?
Outcasts aren't remembered, even after death.

Turning Pages of Life
Life’s like a book — some parts are good, others not so much. Still, keep turning the pages; you might find the best chapter next. If someone hurts you, choose to forgive or just let it be, but never change who you are for them.

Playing Musical Chairs
Many of us can relate to the childhood game of musical chairs. The objective of the game is to find a seat among the chairs laid out in the room before the music finishes. The loser of the game is left standing and excluded from other rounds of the game.

I could feel your sorrow; keep writing! Good piece!
Honestly, your poem depressed me. Remember just one thing. This life is for once so try to live with full strength and let others live with your full support. Stay blessed.
