Lonely

Lunch comes to an end
And the flock comes out,
A sea of colors
And running feet.

Their shouts and calls
Are heard across the yard,
Drowning out the sorrow
Of a lonely one
Waiting inside.

The joy of skipping,
The joy of running,
She’ll never know.

But she still watches
As the others
Enjoy recess together.

Paned by glass,
She watches silently,
As a drop trickles
Down her cheek.
