Behind

Why am I here?
In the same place I have been in for a long time
Why am I the only one behind whilst my friends all succeed?

In this stump, this hellhole; frozen in time as I watch the rest of the world move forward.

What was the thing I didn't do right?
What is wrong with me?

I worked hard, tried everything, did everything  I thought was right but I'm still the one left behind.
