First Day

28 5 1
                                    

I feel so suffocated

Hair curled

Sparkly clothes

Tight jeans

With rips at the knees

My nails shaped and polished

This isn't me

I clutch my bag

In my hands

It feels like everyone is watching me

Looking for a chance to laugh

To reject me from their cliques

The towering building

Paint peeling

Dark windows glaring down

At the small girl

From out of town

I'm definetley not home

Girls run and squeal

Finding their friends

From last year

I'm so out of place

A strange girl

With a lost face

I walk through the halls

Aimlessly

Trying to find someone

Not quite as lost as me

I feel a tap on my shoulder

And I spin around

A small girl

Her eyes darting to the ground

"Excuse me"

She whispered timidly

"Do you know where room 113 is?"

I laugh bringing a smile

"I'm looking for the same place"

So we walk off

Now with purpose

Two small, unbelonging teens

Searching for room

113
