I Have No Friends And I Know Why
November 9, 2009
I sit awake in bed at night,
I'm what some may call the quiet shy type.
I sit there and think,
until I start to cry.
I have no friends and I know why.
I go to school,
Sit in back of class,
and listen as friends gather and talk around me.
I try to make a conversation,
But they look at each other and say,
Why is SHE over here?
she's usually so quiet, so shy.
So I quickly leave and get home,
And sit on the corner of the bed,
and curl up.
And I think until I start to cry,
I have no friends and I know why.
