What do I get? Tears.

What do I get? Tears.

A Poem by Tiffany Elise
"

Freeverse time!

"

The first time I ever love,

And it has to be you,

The guy I once hated,

The guy who will never love me the same.

 

To you I’m just a friend,

A good friend,

A friend that’s there,

Always helpful and happy.

 

But on the inside I’m depressed,

Dying from pain,

The pain of you,

And all I’ve ever known.

 

How come bad happens to good people?

I don’t consider myself a terrible person,

Why do good things happen to bad people?

It’s not fair.

 

They sure weren’t kidding when they said life ain’t fair,

Because I’m sitting here alone crying,

And you’re with her,

And I know who she is.

 

She may be kind,

But you know she likes to see it,

See all the suffering in my eyes,

And to know that I’m dying because of it.

 

How is that fair?

Well honestly it’s not,

But to her it is,

Because she gets you.

 

And what do I get?
Tears.
