I'm all alone again, as I knew I would be
Its not a surprise, it was just a matter of timing
I feel like they got tired and moved on.
Which was not a surprise but just a matter of timing
In the end I'm always right-a clean streak
as I remember what they all said " I'll always be here, I'm going to stay"...
Yet I smile with my mouth hoping my smile I blinding enough to
shade my breaking heart; as I watch them disappear into the crowd.
I tried my best...Although, I always blame myself
when they leave. "What if it really was my fault?"
After all I went to look for the love I couldn't find within me in them.
That did not go according to plan, I made them my source of happiness; a drug
I constantly took. But I just realized: I may never be enough for anyone,
until I am enough for me...

- Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this during one of the times when I was tired of everyone leaving, then I realized the only reason their leaving affected me so much was because I gave them so much power over my happiness; because I had none.
