I have friends who tell me they go to school- I don't.
Some say they hate it- I wouldn't know.
Some say they love it- Again, I wouldn't know.
People tell me I'm a classic homeschooler; super cool and no way to contact- they're right.
They go to prom- I go camping.
They Get off for the Summer- I don't.
They get Spring brake- I don"t; I'm never off.
She asks me to prom- I Tell her I can't make it.
He tells me I'm weird- I shrug it off.
That I don't have a life- I just smile and ask, "what is life?"
That I better stay away- Good luck with that.
That I don't understand- I do.
She asks if she will see me again- I tell her good bye.
Friends go off- I stay here.
Do I miss them?- Yes.
Do I want to go with them?- Sometimes.
She asks if I want to go to a football game- I tell her I have to help my sibs with Homework.
"Cover his ears." He jokes- I just roll my eyes.
"He lives in a fish bowl"- I really don't.
"You have no friends"- You're wrong.
"Even if you do I have more"- So what?
They ask if I would rather go to school- I tell them no.
They ask why- I tell them I'm happy.

I do have friends; the best ones you could ask for. The ones who love me for who I am. So what if I don't go to prom? I still go dancing. So what if I don't get off for the Summer? Can you go on filed trips whenever you feel like it? I didn't think so. I don't mind if some people are mean; at least I don't have to see them everyday. I do plenty of things; I may not be a school-boy, but I am a church boy- make fun if you want. I go to youth group; where the most loving people run to me. They hug me, holed my hand, sing my song, and dance my dance. Alas in spite of that I do sometimes, lay on the ground, look up and wish there were kids in my neighborhood. Then I look down and see two of my best friends laying on my chest; their with me, here and now, I need not be lonely. Homeschoolers are not isolated, we can socialize just as good or better then anyone else. So if you run into a homeschooler say hi; we'll most likely say hi back... maybe.
