i was so over with life,
feeling a burden to everyone except my mother
simply because i was her maid trapped in this small cramped apartment
that kept getting smaller each day i woke
a new girl at school had arrived
she was just arriving here
maybe no one had told her about my cursed life
maybe i could make a real friend,
not someone who waved at me so i wouldn't ' haunt their dreams '
————————————-————————————-————————————-————————————-
i walked up to her with a smile in the cafeteria
no one has sat next to her yet
and now no one will except for me
because no one wanted to sit with a loser and a new girl who made a bad first impression
"hi!" i smiled, sitting down slowly
"oh, hey!" she smiled back.
i couldn't help but realize how beautiful she was.
her eyes were like night skies,
her lips like pink marshmallow,
so soft
————————————-————————————-————————————-————————————-
we spent the day laughing and talking about embarrassing moments
i could tell she felt the weird stares
but she didn't care
i could feel love seeping into the back of my brain
I AM SO SORRY FOR NOT POSTING (even though nobody reads these)
