Important

I just want to be important to someone. Of course I'm important to my husband and my child, but that's it. I am not important to anyone else. And if I am, it doesn't show. It never does.

Again and again, I hope to be someone's something. I don't need to be someone's everything, just someone's something. I want to be thought of, and not as an afterthought. It's not fun being an afterthought. I've been one most of my life, and I am getting really weary of it.

The pathetic thing is, there is nothing I can do. I can't fix this. It's not in my power.

So I just wait......
