"Screw the shining armor. I will take my man in dirty camo any day"

Since the beginning I’ve been proved to fail
My “friend” doesn’t understand
My real friend left
Since she left my life has been upside down
Should have seen it coming
Should have known she’d do that
Since we moved I’ve been cut off from the outside world
Gave up having with friends
Gave up being a normal teen
Since is no more. I want all I’ve lost back
The family life I had
The friends that all moved
Since there is nothing left to loose I have no worry
No friends
No sister
No freedom
No family
No No No No No

Oh my God! You are so good at this! Your poem is really sad, but flowing and pretty at the same time, which makes it very interesting. Can't wait to read more work from you!

This is very relatable. I know that there are times when I feel all alone. The beginning of my freshman year all my friends turned on me and it sucked - so I can relate. Nicely done! :)

I don't think this should be classified as free verse, because I think it would be much better suited for a song! You made great use of patterns here, and went with a very relatable subject. My only complaint is that there is a typo in the story's title.

I was suppose to say hanging with friends not having. Strange how it wasn't on the spell check...
