Why?
I hear your laugh
trying to be with her
I hear your voice
trying to impress her
It makes me so sad to see
you looking at her
instead of me
sitting in the back of the classroom -
Second life
There is no one to go to
there is no one to talk to
there is no love song to relate to
and it makes me feel so utterly alone
I glance at them across the room
then feeling my heart drop slowly down to my feet -
Mirrors
When I look into its horrible glassy surface
I see someone staring back at me
they are contridicting my every move
watching me
taunting me
the living copycat trapped in glass
They mime my every move! -
Music
It's sweet rhythm sings merrily in my ear
and I let go of my fears
dancing around
in my own world
where the only thing for all the eye to see
is my pure joy and happiness
and when that spell is broken -
Unexpected
I stood on the edge of the huge battleship.
My bare feet felt the roughness of the wooden floor beneath me.
I held to the railing,
gripping it tightly,
my hair whipping around my face
as the ship reared up on the tall waves.
