I sat in the back of the classroom,
staring at him flirting with the new girl,
Shameless, Absolutely Shameless.
I understood how she felt,
Utterly infatuated by this boy,
Naïve, Helplessly Naïve.
She didn’t know what he did to me,
The way he took advantage of me in the park,
Oblivious, Incredibly Oblivious.
He stood there smirking, popping his gum,
Waiting to use her for his own pleasure,
Sadistic *******.
I couldn’t help her, I couldn’t even help her,
When I tried to help myself I was laughed at,
Whispers in the hallway, ***** looks, suspension.
Please don’t hurt her the way you did me,
Please.
