Afterthought

As I sit here working on my public law coursework,

I can\'t help but wonder why.

 

Why are there tears running down my face?

 

Is it because of how stressed I am over my studies,

or because I have once again been proven to be an afterthought?

 

I always end up as an afterthought,

and that hurts so much.

I don\'t cry often anymore,

yet here I am, crying over the way others treat me.

 

I also find myself wondering what causes this to keep occuring.

 

I spend a good portion of my time with others,

yet when it comes to making plans,

somehow my name is never mentioned.

 

Is it me who is plagued,

or them?
