None of your contacts are online.
Your parents are out.
It's not like you want to speak to them anyway.
Time trails past.
You text a beautiful person you know.
They don't know you feel that way.
They don't text you back.
It's not like it bothers you.
You tell yourself.
You only see your friends at school.
Or talk to one online.
But when you are with them...
They criticize your every word.
Or ignore you completely.
Friends are nice.
You begin to doubt.
But try not to let it get to you.
