Miss Strange was never
Intended to be a friend
I only wanted to meet her
To fulfill my 6th grade revengeBut among what seemed shallow
A pool of curls and earbuds
I delved deeper
And found a personality to loveSarcastic remarks
A twisted comment or two
I found that Miss Strange
Was one I related toHer words were mysteries
And riddles to loathe
But what seemed morbid and dark
Was laughter hidden by woeShe may be reading this
And if that's so
I hope she understands
She now knows me the mostFor Miss Strange may have been
In my mind a fool
To see romance and kindness
In that eternally unplayable toolBut for that player
And his awful game
I'm now grateful
To have met Miss Strange.
