I Am One of Them

The lights The excitement Cheering the team on Pom poms shake as Twenty cheerleaders smile I am one of them The stands The fans Yelling encouragement Shouting for a touchdown Hoping to make it to the endfeild I am one of them The statements The shouts How we are not loud How we can not dance How the cheer team sucks I am one of them My thoat My back They hurt from the Tumbling and shouting I try my hardest I am one of them No good Just sluts Made to cheer For a team and school That doesn’t even want us I am one of them Twenty cheerleaders Go home The words etched into Our once happy minds Now replaced with embarrassment I am one of them Next week Another game And hopefully A nicer crowd That won’t bully our trying to cheer I am one of them
