Slipping

My feelings when I heard that my best friend was with the guy who'd dumped me earlier that day.

 

Her words slipped after my passing glance

And the unknown that you’ve uncovered

The torment and anxiety of my frantic hope

A prayer, my wish, falls on deaf ears

The blessing not received, an unkind phrase

Caring not, nor well-wishing from him

You know of mine, yet I know not yours

Cease to be ignorant, notice my plea.
