First last loser

  

 Picked up the shreds of my dignity


and put myself together one last time. 


I scraped up the last slivers of hope


and pinned them all on you. 


Hoplessly Iost, I belived in you. 


Only, I traded them all in for this  last betrayal.


Now there's nothing left but my mind


to drive me even deeper into crazy. 


What's worse is, 


there was no sorry


to prick up my wounded pride. 


Only a desolate lanscape where answers should


have been. I strain to squeeze out the slightest


hope. Welcome to my devastation,


its all i have left.


As you aptly said:


"If you're not first, you're last! 


Enjoy the show.. .

Centered Text Format

Hi SS, and thanks for the left flush format - I skipped centered lines and read the bottom first, then realized they are the same words. The prose format rocks! Kick me for admitting it, but I often do not finish poems totally centered. They have to be exceptional for the excrutiating task of fighting off the disaffection with a format. I'm odd, so thanks xoxoxox - Stella
