Cafeteria Misery

Cafeteria Misery

 

 

 

I’m sitting by myself in the corner of

This cafeteria.

I stare at them, wide eyed, they stare back

Like I’m some kind of new found bacteria.

 

I don’t want to be seen,

They make me feel so unclean.

 

I wish I had someone who would talk

To me here, a friend.

If not, is this it, is this the end?

 

After all, this is school

You need to survive, you need to be cool.

 

You can’t be a geek,

You can’t be a nerd

A dork? To them, that’s

Even more absurd!

 

Well, I guess my kindness has been

All for naught

I mean, it’s not like their friendship is

Something I had sought.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

It's high school and it sucks! The video is funny and it relates to the poem. Watch it! [:

Ohh dont worry my friend ,lots feel that way,or rather few
its very common to feel out of place,like being discarded
could never blend,for you may have a different personality
that would never go with theirs,its never easy to socialize
times personality is so special ,unique from others
you just could not blend,could always be felt
strange but i know the feeling all too well
lovely write..

Many people are so lost in high school. By doing things that interest you out of school, it somehow becomes bearable. This is a good write.
