I used to always care
about who was or wasn't there.
I'd stand on the sidelines alone
without a friend to call my own.

As it stands today;
there's just so much I need to say.
Where were you when I was on my knees?
Begging the world, yelling my pleas.

Where were you when I was in the dark?
Hiding my heart, breaking apart.
I suppose I'm just that easy to ignore,
I'm here for your use; nothing more.

I'm sorry to say
but I'm walking away.
My exit is long overdue,
but I'm not sorry I won't miss you.
This is my most recent poem, written today when I was contemplating how many people I've been for that were never there for me.
There's much more that I need to say to them, but this is the gist. :)

It's true. Sometimes you just have to say enough is enough. People don't always realize what they have until it's gone. It's only when they lose it do they actually begin to appreciate it.
