Njeri Hunjeri Poet Free verse

Blurred Lines For Real

What about the fact that am the one that will lose
               It all
What about the fact that am the one who will be left on the curb
              By myself 
What about the fact that it's my life that will take a step back
               Again
What about the fact that it's my story that will suck
              Not yours
What about the fact that I will have the last tears
              While you will have the last laugh
What about the fact that it's my life that will be left stagnant
               While you move on
What about the fact that my numbers will go down
              While yours will go up 
What about the fact that I am who will be haunted by the pain, by our actions, 
               While you can easily click and change the channels 
               And ignore me
               And forget me
