spent lunchtime
tucked away from the world
being teased by year 10s
about my choice of book
and hair c u t

scared of crying out
because of fear
fear of the chains
iron fists clenching
on trembling w r i s t s

too dazed into deafness
to figure out what i want
too shocked into blindness
to figure out what the hell it is
that i l i k e

want to braid her hair
or kiss her all over?
never know, don't know how
never tell her what i feel
scared into dead s i l e n c e.
