Wine Coolers
Push through the day,
Sick and miserable,
A good student,
Raise hands,
Answer questions,
Never skip,
Stay out of trouble.
Barely conscious,
Singled out,
Rumours abound.
In a cult?
On drugs?
Suicidal?
Superior?
Bully attempts shot down.
Doesn't party,
Doesn't dream,
Won't lift a voice to scream.
Goes home
To drinks bought special,
Just get through the year.
"That's a girl's drink"
A response without a think
A fake gender confirmed
'cause I remember being called freak,
Now we don't talk anymore.
Bloody scars behind bathroom doors.
I really need a drink,
But no one buys it anymore.
