Left to Drown
Alone I sit, a table meant for two
I face the empty seat that laughs at me
And taunts me. You are worthless. Is it true?
No one will love you. Lies that I believe.
I look around and jealousy rages
At happy couples, their affection sweet
And angered at their starry-eyed gazes,
Their conversation quiet and upbeat.
Laughter rings out amidst my sad silence
The tears pour down my face as I wonder
What’s wrong with me? Why am I not worth it?
Where is my happily-ever-after?
Nowhere can my happy ending be found
I’m in oceans of heartbreak left to drown.
