Well, Neither Are You
They continued to shout at her,
But she was not crushed,
Not a single tear left her eye,
Not a single word came from her mouth
But deep down the words of disgust
Had started having their effect on her
Now, I wouldn’t say she’s perfect
But at the same time, I would call her unique
For she was sweet and smart just like the rest of us
Her hands wrote the neatest calligraphy
And her inner star was ready to come out,
But those words of hatred had told her
You’re not us, you’re not worth it
I thought this happened once in a while,
But boy I was wrong.
Now every time they saw her
they would laugh at her
Call her the evil names
Tell her she had no friends
But all I wanted was to befriend her
Hours passed into days and days into months
They continued to mock her
So what if she wasn’t good at studies
She’s a rock star
And if continue with your atrocious behaviour
Let me tell you something,
It just proves something she has which you don’t
And if you think she’s not even the slightest bit near perfect
Well, neither are you,
And my dear friend who aspired me
Just remember, be less sugar and more spice
only as nice as you’re able to without compromising yourself.
