As soon as I sat down,
I was asked what was wrong.
Out of everyone who knows me best,
None of them said a word.
As soon as another joined,
They too were worried.
These people recently acquainted
Knew instantly I wasn't okay.
Then the next arrived,
Looked at me with concern.
I insisted I was fine,
While my mind was in protest.
None of them gave up,
But still was mainly comforting.
Many I've loved have brought me to tears,
But these can see the tears unshed.
Thank you, I love you.
But once you know the truth,
Will you all still love me?
I really hope you do.
This is about the people i sit with at lunch. I really love this school year so far because I've made so many great friends. I had a really rough night, then the next day, my supposed best friends didn't notice notice anything was wrong; when I got to lunch and saw these people who have only seen 25 minutes out of each 9 whole days, realized as soon as i sat down something was up with me. It actually made me really happy, but inevitably more sad at the same time. I really am thankful for them though, I don't think I would've made it that day without them.
