That chick (Z) is too lazy to post her poems. I like her writing, so i decided i share it with you guys.
Second Place
========================================================
The bell rings as the happy couple say their “I do’s”. Everything at this point in time seems magical.
The audience claps as the couple kiss. They run past the crowd in bliss. That is when the girl in the back cannot take it anymore. She runs out of the building, in the opposite direction.
While the people from the wedding go north, the girl runs south. She leaves her heart behind. Her black gown trails behind her as she runs.
She runs faster once she abandons her heels on the side of the road. Somewhere, far away from her, music plays and people dance happily. But here, she is alone and nothing is heard other than the wind passing her ears and the wrenching that escapes her.
Far away, happy smiles and bright colors are everywhere. Here, her tears blur her view of the bleak road ahead of her. She has lost. There is nothing she can do but run faster and embrace her failure.
Her chest screams in protest, but she continues. The rain begins to fall as the end of the road comes into view. She does not hesitate as she jumps over the edge. Far away, the happy couple feed each other cake. Here, she allows the darkness in.
This is her consolation prize.
