On the outside looking in
That elusive sense of achievement
oozes between the fingers
of my clenched fists,
slowly dribbling away
until only a faint stain remains.
Laughter and music
seep under the door,
slithering into the shadows
where I wait.
All that stands between us is
a juvenile dream
of playful protests
as you drag me in,
and a burning wall of resentment
that my absence hasn't dimmed your smile.
A test born of immaturity
and self doubt,
that you never even knew about
but failed anyway.
