All there left in a note;
thrown out unto
an icy wintry gusto.
Crescendos of longing,
cradling my will forward
beyond its intended
destination of solitude.
Fighting for a thread
of my dearest memories.
"Those you've lost
still walk behind you."
Doesn't seem like it.
Seems like that's a
gargantuan lie.
One just to placate
the sobbing and broken.
A wail through the willows.
A flame in the silence.
Someone is trying to
speak toward us.
Someone is trying to
make a difference.
Maybe I should be some
kind of laundry line.
People hang all over me
anyway, don't they?
Then guess what?
Everyone vanishes.
Just spiders dancing
out there in the air.
While little lonely me,
sits in this puddle.
Dirty and soaking wet.
I got here from force.
I didn't stray or wonder.
Following- my curse;
trusting- my downfall.
Someone is coming;
coming back for me!
Coming down to the
water with lanterns.
They vanish around
a single turn.
No one is coming for me.
All the others lost
about their beautiful,
sweet revelry.
What of is my question?
Alone in my self-created
fortress of something
I happened to forget.
Rushed off stage,
and can't remember why.
What was it that was
always wrong with me
Remind me again.
Guess I missed the mark.
Didn't make the cut off,
for the line of best fit.

Explaination: High school hasn't been fun. This was my way of getting it all out. The prompts fit nicely. I hope you like it. (I think it may be over the line limit. Forgive me, Kat and Claire [Who I just noticed was co-hoasting] {HI PEOPLE!!!}?
