High School Life
November 4, 2013
You’re a foot fairy.” they say to me.
“You’re a band geek.” they mock at me.
“You’re a Jesus freak.” they bash on me.
What can I do to gain their love?
Hatred toward everything I do!
When will this pass?
High school needs to die.
“Poetry is for fags.” they tell me.
“Man whore.” they call me.
“Nerd.” they laugh at me.
Why do they do this?
Discrimination flowing through their blood.
What will stop them?
High school needs to die.
