Flight-143 (Sall's Rejection)
Carried away by my minds departure
Like a jet plane leaving at sunrise
From the ground it seems to float by
It’s almost inconceivable
In the cockpit the sounds of the engines roar
turbulence frightening the passengers
as the craft hits irregular violent waves
It feels like I'm going down…
maybe ?
Maybe if the passengers had of drank enough on the flight
Maybe they would have slept right through
Maybe if the child in front wasn’t screaming
Maybe it wouldn’t all seem so bad
A Voice can be heard over the PA telling them all to calm down
That Voice that is trying to calm nerves is being drowned out by other sounds
Some people watching an inflight film
But most of them freaking out .
Maybe everything will be alright
I still think that we're going down.
or Maybe were just friends....

Author's Note
I met a girl a while back and she didn't really seem my type . I fell in love with her personality , hanging out with made me feel like fireworks going off in my stomach . After a year of knowing her i finally got the courage to ask her out . She reminded me that were just mates. I accept that . I know now that the reason is she is seeing someone else but didn't want to hurt me so she refers to him as "her friend" .This is a reflection of how her rejection makes me feel , knowing that i have now ruined our friendship as well as any hopes of anything more because now I've just made it awkward , I wish I had of just kept my feelings inside and never let them out . I knew she was too good for me. I wish I had seen reality .. .hindsight's a harsh mistress . I'll forever be alone
