Just another tuesday
I wake up in the morning,
try to find something to wear that will make me fit in,
but my sister goes on saying "You look corny".
I get to school and all I hear is girls talking abot their special "him"
I try to meet new people, but they seem to dislike me.
I get tons of homwork that everyone but me seems to understand.
At PE, girls criticize and tell me I need to get fit.
When I get home, I hear my parents fighting about things I can't stand.
I sit in my chair and try to do my homework but it just doesn't click.
The only thing my parents seem to agree on is that I am not doing enough
but I try my best to keep my 3.5 GPA, to stay on the Nationals list for speech and debate, and to have friends.
It's not enough.
I am screamed at that I need to go to bed so my day comes to an end.
I say a little prayer.
Its okay.
I am in good care. Amen
I sigh and think, It's just another tuesday.
