Poetry, Three Things Challenge

Exit Stage Left

Your three words today are:
FARCE
RIDICULE
COMEDY

Was our friendship a farce,
Where you could ridicule me?
Was it a comedy show
For you to get your laughs in, free?

Did you play the leading role,
While I sat in the crowd,
Hoping for a moment,
When you’d lift me from the shroud?

Were my secrets just punchlines,
My heart a joke on display?
I sought a bond and connection,
Not the cruelty of your play.

Yet here I stand, unbroken,
No longer part of your scene,
I’ll rewrite my own story,
Where I’ve learned to be seen.

So take your laughter, your mockery,
And leave me to find my way,
In a world where friendships flourish,
And genuine hearts can stay.
