The Others

The boy next to me with the crystal clear blue eyes is cute

His curly brown hair is like a frame around his smooth, freckled face

He smiles sweetly at me,

The kind of smile that I can't get from her


The tall boy behind me has jet black hair combed smoothly over

He has freckles too, though his tan masks them almost completely

He laughs at all of my jokes

Unlike her


The girl with the thick glasses sits next to me

She listens to my endless chatter and talks to me when no one else will

She is patient

Different from her


She has strawberry blond hair and is always a few steps ahead of me

I try to smile at her, laugh at all of her jokes, and have patience

But she can't see it

I'll keep trying though
