"You were told to run away
Soak the place and light the flame
Pay the price for your betrayal
Your betrayal, your betrayal"
-Bullet For My Valentine, "Your Betrayal"
I went to a picnic for my friend's birthday. She said she wanted me there so I went. Her other two friends were there and the three of them have known each other for a while and I was like the outcast, but that's fine because I like being the outcast. They had inside jokes and have a really strong friendship. While I was there I took pictures of them and it made me realize something. I was the cameraman because I'm not comfortable being on camera, but I'm good at taking pictures. I have so many pictures of them, but none of me with them. It was like I wasn't even there. If people looked at the photos they would see it was Maya, Sarah, and Sean. Where was I? Behind the camera where I should be because nobody wants to look at someone as ugly and fat as I am.
Being there made me feel worthless. Like I was only there to make sure they had photos to savor the memories. When they look at those photos in a few years who are they going to remember being there? Will they remember me? Will I be the outcast again? I am so tired of being overlooked. I am a pretty good friend and I think I'm fun to be around. Why do I feel so worthless?
