The Sad Birthday Card


Authors Note: This piece was written to showcase the feelings of a birthday card. he is a sad little card trying to share his feelings with the reader.
     Squiggle squiggle , polka dot polka dot. Happy birthday, hope your birthday is great, have a great birthday. So far my dream of being unique is not coming true.  I have been lying smushed in between many other papers that look just like me all packaged in plastic, sitting on the arts and crafts shelf 
     Since the day I came hot of the press I had dreamed to be used for something unique and creative. I have waited for many days to taken out of the pack of paper and be used. This day isn't as special as I had imagined . So far all that is being written on me is the same old happy birthday, and the cheesy clichés written inside. To top all of that off the person who is using the markers are pressing so hard that the ink is bubbling out of the markers tip. Poor marker, but his ink is splashing everywhere on me and making me look a mess.
        Well my life hasn't been all I had imagined, but I guess maybe it never is. I could be worse. also I am home made unlike those store bought cards, I show love and know the reviver of myself will know someone took time to make them a card, instead of just buying one. That counts.
