I'm Sorry...

by Kelsey R Beeckman   Jun 30, 2015


I just wanted to be free

Free from the indirect hurt
Free from rejecting you
Free from causing stress

Little did I know I will never be free
Trapped in a scene of which I can't escape
Like a cartoon character living in a television set
I can never escape my surroundings

"One day we'll be together," he said
"It'll happen, I PROMISE," he said
He's the ventriloquist, I'm his puppet

All I do is wait, wait, wait no matter what
I miss having a friend in my surroundings
I miss smiling, laughing, living
I miss our friendship

My life has darkened now
The show has ended
Just a black screen of nothing, now
Emptiness, loneliness, and a small spark of hope

Go to work on July 16th
Dinner with a friend from school
We're seeing A7X at the casino
I really need a hug
