Today I went down to my Cafeteria,
As I approached I was filled with hysteria,
I saw a girl limping to the same place,
Looking at the floor as if it were a reflection of her face.
She was walking at a very slow rate,
I thought this would be a way to make a friend by fate,
I lunged for the handle to hold open the door.
I even looked over and smiled some more.
She looked at me and we met eyes,
I expected a smile in return, I saw nothing but demise.
As she walked away i started to wonder,
What happened to this girl, why she was so sundered?
I hate the people that hurt her so bad,
That when a stranger is nice, there is no reason to be glad.
I hope one day she can smile some more,
Rather than walking around staring at the floor.
