Left Out

That feeling, of being left out, left behind. It makes you feel like.. like nobody wants you. Like you're not important enough. Like no one cares. It just brings you down, and no matter how hard they try, people can't cheer you up. Others don't understand, they never will. They don't get your pain. You want them to, but then again, maybe you don't. Maybe you want sympathy, maybe not. What you really want is for them to stop, though. The feeling sucks.

Even though you feel like you're not good enough, you have to realize that you are. If you weren't, you wouldn't be alive. Everyone has a purpose in life; that's why they're made. Some people's roles are big, some aren't. We're all like, puzzle pieces to a giant puzzle. Some pieces are only the grass, the sky, or the background, and some pieces are the faces, the buildings, the focus of the puzzle. But either way, the puzzle wouldn't be complete without all the pieces.

But there's many things to realize. First, if these people are ignoring you, then maybe they don't care. Which hurts, but that means they aren't really your friends. True friends stand by your side, no matter how crazy, random, or dumb your choice is: they'll support you every step of the way. The ones that leave you out, forget about you, or any other dumb excuse, those ones aren't worth your time.

Second, being left behind is different. It might not be their fault they're leaving you behind. Someone else might be pushing them ahead, and holding you back. You have to be able to know the difference, so you don't blame the wrong person. And in the end, it might hurt, but as long as those ahead of you, the ones you want to be with, the ones you call your friends, don't ignore you, then they're worth it. They don't mean it to be that way, that's just how it is.


Lastly, there will always be someone who will stand by your side. Just because they aren't in your life now, doesn't mean they're not out there. Because they are; waiting; for you, whether they know it or not. At some point in your life, you will come across people you can depend on, lean on, rely on to be there when you need it. It might take a while to find that person, but in the end, it will all be worth it.
