Love and Other Teenage Dramas

She Knew But Didn't Care

I sat on the blencher there

Mouth agape, and stared

Ahead at the crowd

Growing increasingly loud

Cheerleaders were doing routines

Swishing skits could be seen

Player got on the field

Flashily quick and skilled

Onlookers screamed and shouted

Encouraging words were what they mouthed

But as for one girl namely me,

I am quiet as can be

My eyes were stuck t on him

And tears had started to brim

Panging hurt moved through my chest

This game like a torturing test

Kicked the ball and scored

Triumph yells shook the floor

To him, one cheerleader ran

Her flying hair of golden sand

She turned to me and sneered

Motionless, I simply teared

Lips form the word, S’up, bitch

Before they faced and dipped a kiss

I have loved him all along

Like a lame heartbroken song

She’s my former best friend, how unfair

And she knew, but didn’t care
