Neglected
July 20, 2011
Displaying all I have achieved, oh so carefully, on fragile glass. Its clarity dulled by age, instead, a milky sheen receives my work.
I can’t help but smile at how I’ve grown, changed, improved.
So proud of myself, my achievements.
Waiting and waiting for appreciation, and when a chance arrives, my heart quickens. Anxious anxious nervous worried.
Half a second’s glance towards the gallery.
Oh, that’s nice.
And walk away, disinterested.
Oh.
