Array ( [sid] => 46955 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Foreigner [time] => 2004-05-10 18:17:57 [hometext] => In the last year i've lost my three closest friends to suicide. Three people who i grew up with and felt more devotion too than anyone. This is my feeling of being wrongfully left behind and feeling unjust for staying. [bodytext] => I missed my call,
I missed the bus.

Waiting patiently for it all to happen,
The waves of feet pass over the platform.
Watching others all about,
Laughing, joking, larking around.
Then one by one they'd dissapear,
They came, they left; but were not here.

I dreamed, I wished, I hoped, I longed.
And slowly as the waves compounded me,
I realised that i missed my bus.

I never was and they never cared,
Just an outsider looking in.
I took my chance, I caught the bus.
Now I need no place.

It's hard to lose a loved one, and I'm sorry you had to go through with that three different times. I wish you luck in all that you. And you should understand that people know what your going through. With the help of other friends, and family you can make it. Good luck. If you need to talk..i'm here -Stace-

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
