Best Poems Written by Katelyn Kwiatkowski

Shattered Eyes

I walk around the person
You call yourself
Why can’t you see me?
I see myself

I walk over to you
I thought you were my friend
But we are not
Never to the end

When I walk up to you
You just walk by
A cold shoulder is my friend
I like to ask you why

But I already know the answer 
It’s as plain as can be
You never really wanted to be my friend
As I now can see

How many times were you going to leave me out?
Did you think that I would just take the hint?
But now my vision is clearer
No longer blocked with tint

I see you for what you really are 
A truly horrid person
You think you are better without me
But it is you whose situations worsen

Thank you for showing me 
The ugliness under your mask
I guess I am better off
You don’t need to ask

I am happy 
You need not ask why
I have a new friend
Without a shattered eye

She can see me
Anytime of day
I guess I’m not invisible
You were just in the way
