Another one.... huzzah... about school life. (Mine in fact)
Alienation
Walking through the playground
I see the children
Playing, talking, joking
I walk through the corridors
The playing, the talking, the jokes
They stop
The taunts begin
I walk faster
Is it anger? Fear?
I step through the double doors
The cafeteria,
The old childhood smells rush back
The childhood memories
I thought I had escaped them
They stare at me with piercing eyes
I hear the chitter chatter amongst them
The laughter subtly aimed
At me
At me
Why me?
What did I do?
I walk through the other side
Up the stairs
I see familiar faces
Perhaps at one time
They may have been friendly
But not anymore
Now they are bitter
Like snakes ready to spit venom
I look down, I see the floor rush past
As I walk briskly towards my sanctuary
That chair, in the Common Room
No-one around it, just me
Alone
EDIT: If anyone at all reads this... huh... well...you get the message of how I feel right now...
Night Draws In
As night draws in
I listen to the song come to a close
I watch as the switch flickers the light off
I sit alone in the dark
With my friend
My only friend
Through the dark night
As I watch the night sky
Through the dust littered window
Beside me,
What should have been done
But has not
My friend glistens in the shimmer of light,
From the light of a lonely streetlamp.
I can relate.
I put away what should have been done
I think of you, wherever you are
I pray I'll see you someday
Your beauteous face
Praying to the only God I have left
I look at my friend
It smiles a glistening metal smile
I pray me and my love will be united one day
I wish I was stronger.
I wish I had done those things.
I feel strength boil up inside me
My friend hits my chest
He pierces it
Drip
Drip
Drip
I watch as the darkness slowly swirls in
As the night draws in
