I Have Faced Poem by Sydne Morris

I have faced humilation
walked in crowds
people laughing and pointing
at me
having no one stand up for me

I have faced the consequences
of telling to many lies
seeing the trust
of people who I love
fall like the World Trade Center
never to come out of the ashes

I have faced emotions
of not fitting in
and not having friends

I thought I had faced
the big apple betrayal
That was before
my so called boyfriend
kissed a girl
put our relationship on hold
Now he has a decison to make
And I know he isn't going to choose me

When he first told me
everything that happened
I was a cold bottle of Coca Cola
on a hot summer day
empty
a meaniless shell of plastic

Yet after all of this
I didn't feel angry
just dissappointed

Now all I can do
is to wait

Heck no says one side of my mind
No problem says the other
Am I dying of heartbreak?
I have faced everything
that shouldn't have come my way
However no warning came for this
so much for love
