The Outcast

He lurks in the shadows Afraid to be seen Afraid have being laughed at Afraid of others being mean He is an outcast To his classmates And kids at school He does not fit in Wth the nerds Or with those Who are cool He tries to rise above They just shove him back down Then the laughter starts Sounding from all around Hr cries silent tears After a day of laughter and snears He chokes on each hateful word Barely able to catch his breath He has cried so much It hurts his chest He thinks about murder Just killing them all Being the one laughing Watching them fall He thinks about taking his on life That would just be a waste No one in this school Would care enough To show up at his wake The pain The hatred Continues to take it's toll He carries on Knowing he is strong Strong enough to handle their hate Until the day theu graduatr Then he can tell them all goodbye Never having to see them again
