An ostrich, which was Sue so dubbed
Thought surely she had been snubbed 
Though given wings, a pair
They wouldn’t lift her to air 
Leaving her to think somebody flubbed

Ostracized Not Secularized
There was a man who was thought to be numb,
Some even said he was dumb,

Has done

The same.

ostracized

Lord only knows how much I dreaded this game
The boy next to me tagged the other girl to his left
She is it.
The kids repelled from her as if she was...

A chain ended
At daggers drawn with no discharge in animosity 
Berated and mocked regardless of my actions or intentions 
Cant take much more, hell I'm 27
"Dont take it mate", bite that bullet
Everything i hoped, friendship, closeness
Fond memories few and far between 
Granted, i was not abused or...
