The Third Wheel

Was as thin as a scarecrow, Though he had no straw hat Though he thought himself as decent, no one else had thought that He was a runt to some big farmer boys, he never fought back Though his intellectual abilities exceeded far beyond a farm hack Short like his uncles temper, though he had himself some features Jawline is sharp, but acne-covered like it's pepperoni pizza. Wasn't a wizard with the ladies, but one day he came to school with his hair, done nice And a girl had noticed this, and asked to hang out with him, one night "Or maybe on the weekend, we could meet and see a screenin', Of that brand new smackin' movie, then maybe go out to the streets an' Get something to eat, and, Maybe frozen yogurt for a treat then, You could walk me back to my house, now don't that sound like quite the evening?" Now this was a rather large propsal for a youngin' who had so little in his pocket Heart was throbbin, wide-eyed, The boy was so excited, yet confused and surprised "I swear to God i'm dreaming, someone; please open up my eyes!!" He thought this to himself, and to himself; he often thinks. But he might have himself a girlfriend, and he thought this was supreme! But his thought was quite abrupt, although he was technically alone Alaina texted him, he got this message, quickly checking on his phone; " You don't have to buy a ticket, Jack is paying for it all... Isn't he so rich, and big and strong? Anyways, you can bring someone along If you want to, cause I know it'd be so awkward with the three of us, Me and Jack will be there in a half hour, so alright buddy, I'll be seeing ya!!" He stared at the screen blankly, remembering his recollection, that was poor Of what Alaina said before, to go to the movies, nothing more To be a third wheel, to make things "less awkward, for me and Jacks first date.." That had been her offer, originally, in the first place. His mind had played tricks, and walked him 'round the corn maze Being a third wheel? What a horrible night, what a poor day They all went to the movies, he sat beside them, while they're smooching He said to no one "I feel woozy" then simply got up, and he left He took his bike out of its locks, then he started ridin' He saw a woman drivin', wavin and smilin'. He looked back and gave her a smile that was vibrant, But he didn't realize that the smile was for someone behind him 3/21/17
