Being Accepted

I sit here

Staring in

At the place

Where I don’t fit in

They all laugh

Smile and cheer

While I cry

Sitting here

They have boyfriends

Guys and dates

But I’m different

Or maybe I’m late

A late developer

Who can’t seem to find

Who she is

I’m just hiding behind

Behind the popular girls

 With their long blonde hair

Six inches of make up

Act like they don’t care

I get my heart broken

Yet again

I don’t learn from my mistakes

 I just fall for them

The girls who glare

Hiss and tease

They laugh at me

Help me please

Why me?

What have I done?

Can’t I be normal?

I’m the only one

I don’t fit in

I never will

I’ll be lost

That’s what’s real

I’m still hoping

That they’ll leave me alone

I’ve given up being strong

Instead I just groan

Because being accepted

Isn’t easy at all

So I’ll give up now

And stand defeated and small
