I must have looked so pathetic,
walking on by the party
to which I was not invited;
it was actually prophetic.
I always was the odd one out,
always looking in and on.
couldn't help going past there anyway.
I guess I was hoping for a shout.
The shout never came, you all know
because you remained silent
while I walked sorrowfully by,
just one person could have said "Hello."
I craved a chance to say good-bye
to the man I had admired
and for whom I volunteered,
but he wasn't there as I strolled by.
