The popular boy shakes during his speech.
His voice is quiet, his breathing erratic. The index cards dripping of nervous sweat. He can't focus, can't remember what to say.
The pretty girl doesn't believe compliments. She'll smile and laugh, but look into her mirror and cringe. The pretty girl shines from her smiles. You can't capture that in a reflection.
The lonely kid just wants a friend. Just wants someone to eat lunch with. Trust is hard to keep when giving second chances are too high stakes. They can't give anyone hope.
A lost soul trying to find their purpose in other people. Turning away from themselves in times of need. Lying to themselves, they're not better. Someone who works too hard for others.
Friendly students too soft to have enemies. Too scared of seeing bad sides of themselves in ex friends' words. Sweet companions you can't protect forever.
People being human, being afraid of judgement; of their minds. Darkness.
The popular boy shakes during his speech.
