You only talk to me when I’m with him,
Like I’m invisible
Are you my friend?
Or do you just
Politely acknowledge me
Because I’m with him?
I’m his friend
And you’re his friend
But you don’t really consider me a friend…
Do you?
We used to talk,
But now I realize,
It was only when he was there
As if the only reason I am seen
Is because I’m seen with him.
My best friend is popular,
And I am an outcast
So I only have friends
When I’m with my best friend.
Like I’m invisible
Are you my friend?
Or do you just
Politely acknowledge me
Because I’m with him?
I’m his friend
And you’re his friend
But you don’t really consider me a friend…
Do you?
We used to talk,
But now I realize,
It was only when he was there
As if the only reason I am seen
Is because I’m seen with him.
My best friend is popular,
And I am an outcast
So I only have friends
When I’m with my best friend.
My best friend has so many friends, and a lot of them do often consider me a friend, but it seems like they only talk to me when we both happen to be hanging out with him at the same time. It makes me feel so alone, but I don't want to be selfish and ask my friend to only hang out with me, he has his life and I have mine, and I can't let my feelings get in the way of things... It seems like most of my poetry is about him...
