I turn around but I still can't see
I'll fall over but no one will catch me
Everyone looks at me as though I'm lower than dirt
They glare and sneer and laugh
They talk about me, as if I don't have feelings
Like a robot off an assembly line
I look away, to hide the tears
And the scars, but they always find out somehow
Then they talk about me and pretend they don't notice
I'm real, I am a human, I'm a teenage girl
Like the rest of them, but I'm not one of them
I'll never be one of them
Yet I look up for a second and I see something
A light
So bright I can't look away
I keep looking, I want to know what it is
I walk towards it, then I break into a run
It's you, you look at me
But you don't sneer or laugh at me
You smile, and laugh with me
You cheer me up when I'm down
You assure me things will get better
I know I can always turn to you
In a world where everyone else hates
You love
Author notes
I've had a rough past few days... and weeks... and months... Well, ever since I started highschool really, 2 years ago, my life has been hell. But even though it all seems like its gonna fall apart, there's this one person. I know I can tell anything, who is always there for me, who can make me laugh at the silliest things and is always ready if I need to talk. So even though my life is really bad sometimes, I am so grateful I have such friends like her. This poem is written and dedicated to my best friend forever, Dani! I love you!
I was gonna stop after the sad bit but I kept going. Comments?
