The Forgotten One

something to think about. don't ever treat your loved ones, your friends or anyone like a second choice. cherish the people around you, who loves you for the way you are. 



The Forgotten One

"the world is a lonely place.

i once saw a girl, 

she was laughing and smiling to a joke that i couldn't comprehend

she was always saying yes to everyone

she was always making sure that everyone is happy

although some of the words that i heard were harsh and rude

she kept smiling like it hasn't affected her in any way

she was always trying to live up to everyone's expectation

and not even once, i heard her sigh or screamed 

the smile plastered on her face was incomprehensible 

but her eyes gave her away

as the pair contained sorrow and grief

no one noticed 

that behind her smile

she was actually crying

behind her laughter

she was actually bleeding

behind her jokes and sarcasm

she was actually broken inside

she saw me and gave me a nod 

for she knows that i know how it felt like to be treated that way

to be treated like a toy

played when bored forgotten when occupied

as i stare at my own reflection

she gave me a nod and plastered a smile

and let the world believe that her and I 

are still smiling 

although dead inside. "
