Nobody With You

A cute little nothing I wrote just a little while ago. It doesn't really relate to me, but it came out as word vomit, and I thought it would be nice first addition to the site.

You get shouldered in the hallways

As the jock-buffs push on through.

When I say your name quite dreamily

People often ask me, “Who?”

You may not be real popular

Or known to Timbuktu

But I’d gladly be nobody with you.

 

You get stepped on in the lunch line

And picked last for kickball teams.

But I promise you you’re the only one

Who’s always in my dreams.

While the average folk may be too blind

To see your perfect view

I would gladly be nobody with you.

 

They can keep their glitter and their glitz

I’d rather have your smarts and wits

Any old day of the week

 

I’ll take your glasses and your charm

Your funny voices and red ant farm

Far over their poise and their chic

 

You may be nerdy, and a little off track,

But that’s ok I’m out of whack

Nearly as much as you are.

 

I like your shoes, and I like your hair,

And I like the different clothes you wear

Though sometimes a bit bizarre.

 

You may get shouldered in the hallways

As the jock-buffs push on through.

When I say your name quite dreamily

I may always get asked, “Who?”

You may not be real popular

Or known to Timbuktu

But I’d gladly be nobody with you.

 

I would gladly be nobody with you.

Author's Note

This really isn't meant to be beautifully deep or meanful. It more came out as a little blurb. I actually imagined it in my head as a song, the bigger stanzas to the tune of "At The Bottom Of Everything" by Bright Eyes.
