Alone
I don’t have friends.
Which makes me embarrassed.
If they made fun of me, I would say-
I don’t want friends!
I am edgy!
I am aloof!
And that sounds better to me.
I never really say that aloud.
But if they cared enough to ask, yes I would say I hate everyone.
Yes, I’m an edgy, aloof teen.
I am too cool to have friends.
I am not stupid, and weird…
I could explain and explain until I get tired and cry.
At the beginning of the semester,
I don’t care where I sit.
I’m unique in that way.
Because I don’t have friends.
