A Disappearance

Left so overwhelmed 
with all the tomfoolery;
Drowning in why try;
Operating in my lane,
never meant to set the pace;

Not made to follow, 
they go right as I turn left;
Throw in a white flag;
My heart eviscerated,
I’m stuck between fight or flight;

Thinking of the group 
that already forgot me;
A disappearance 
from them and an about face,
you just can’t save everything.
