My Mind Is My Cage

I always feel singled out of the crowd.

I wonder why they chose me.

I wonder why they don’t pick on anyone else when I am around.

Rumors. 

They suck.

I had one about me

That I was dating a girl that I was just friends with

But according to middle school boys that means that we are 

I find myself both fearful and mad

At the outcome that happened on November 5.

I find myself wanting to curl into a ball and hide from it all for four years.

But I can’t.
