Not Meant to Be Here


I was never meant to be here
I had dreams
dreams of being faraway
Somewhere I didn't have to force myself to stay.
Somewhere where my wings were to learn how to take flight.
But not here. 
Because I was never suppose to be here.
I was meant to have a boyfriend,
He was suppose to make me forget about the one who broke my heart.
The one who utterly destroyed me. 
We would have met up
 For a quick coffee here
Or a romantic date there 
Yet I lay here alone.
I was never suppose to be here.
I was suppose to be this world famous writer.
My words were meant to grab
and keep others attention.
My book was suppose to be transformed into a movie
But that will only be a figment of my imagination
because i am here.
I was never meant to be here.
