Some people have imaginary friends.
I wouldn’t quite say the same for me.
In a way, yes, she is,
But, on the contrary,
It’d be an insult if you said that.
You see,
She has feelings, too.
And her quirks, like everyone else.
When she wants to tell somebody to shut up,
She has to say it thrice.
Her favorite phrase is
“First of all,”
And she loves to yell at me.
I am her loser,
But a retard and stupid head the same.
She loves to treat life as if it’s a game,
And makes everybody else seem insane.
She hates normal things,
And people, too.
They’re too ordinary for her,
Maybe not to me and you.
She says I can’t call her a moron,
Since her and I are the same.
Sometimes I talk to myself.
The scary thing about that?
Well, if you must know,
Sometimes I answer back.
Author notes
Originally I was going to call it "Inner Voice," but I thought of an icon my sister found once. She labeled it with my name, for it says, "Sometimes I talk to myself. The scary thing about that? I answer back." So I named this poem "The Scary Thing." I might've tricked some people. And for those who want to know, my "inner voice" has all of the quirks I mentioned.
Anyway, I'm 11.

This is very interesting! My favorite part was when you said "sometimes I answer back". It's the perfect ending! I like the title too. It first made me think that this poem was going to be about monsters or ghosts or something, but then as I read it, I was like..."ohhhh!" Great poem! Good luck in the contest!
