Unlike Others



I am not like other girls 

I am more unique 

You came into my life with swirls 

But then left it feeling bleak 


I am not like other girls

Because of you I am this way

You gave me independence 

What more can I say ? 


I am not like other girls

Changed in the twinkling of an eye

You made me this way

You see, before your last sigh ! 


I am not like other girls

I came to see you at rest

Your Clown Face not on as yet

You, Just You, Without any Jest ! 


I am not like other girls 

To your funeral, I didn’t go

Even though I was your Widow 

Too many mourners, full of Woe. 


I am not like other girls 

Inside I’m full of Fire

My last view of you 

Was at the Funeral Parlour 


I am not like other girls 

The Other Woman Said

Why were you not at the Funeral ? 

Even though he was in my bed ? 


I am not like other girls

Though you meant the world to me

I say Goodbye differently 

That’s just the way I am !  


Inspired by the line - I am not like other Girls, a FB Group. 

Just wrote this after my online Poetry Group as left feeling really inspired even though I shared another poem of mine today.
