Normal

The definition of normal Is conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected. When I was graduating fifth grade All of my classmates were crying, They were sad To leave. Leave the school Leave their teachers Leave their friends I on the other hand Was ecstatic, I couldn’t wait to walk off-campus and never look back I didn’t shed a single tear, And that's not, Normal. When I was graduating eighth grade All of my classmates were crying, They were sad To leave. Leave the school Leave their teachers Leave their friends They were all taking pictures with their robes and saddened smiles But, I on the other hand Ran off that campus so fast My only friend had to call me to come back So, she could take a photo I didn’t shed a single tear, And that’s not, Normal. Now, in 11th grade I have no friends I spend my lunches in the library Reading, I read about Other’s adventures Other’s loves Other’s lives I can’t wait till I graduate. I know I won’t shed a single tear, And that’s not, Normal. I want to be normal I want to have friends I want to have my own adventures My own loves I want to live But, I’m Not Normal So, maybe I’ll always be stuck Reading Another’s Story
