Poetry: Betrayal

by Brenna Mae

So now I have nobody.
No one person to turn to or cry with, when I'm feeling like it's the end.
I have nobody to laugh with, nobody to call when I'm lonely or bored,
I don't have anyone now,
And I am alone now.

I have friends,
No-I have acquaintances.
They don't really talk to me,
only he once did, and now he's gone.

What happened to him?
Why is he such a mess?
He once had dreams of becoming a star,
Now he's alone and distressed.

He only has acquaintances too,
he doesn't realize it yet.
I was his true friend,
and he used to know that.

He has a new crowd now,
and has left me here to cry,
only saying horrible things,
and he won't regret till at least a week has gone by.

Why am I alone now?
What have I done wrong?
The answer is nothing, and I must move on.
