I Can’t Make Them Poem by Naida Nepascua Supnet

I Can’t Make Them

Rating: 4.8


They look our way all four of them
We smiled and wave wave back at them
They smiled and talked and greeted my boys
Did they to me? No. That’s their choice
They seem to smile but they smile with their teeth
I think they’re shy we don’t look in the eye
They seem pleasant but they’re uneasy
I don’t know why what’s wrong with me

Trying I’m trying I do really try
For them to like me oh my oh my
Because They’re high so high and mighty
I’m scared of them they just can’t see
I hide my fear my fear of them
‘Cause all this time I am ashamed
I know I’m not welcome, it is so true
My effort’s in vain I feel so blue.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
There are people that when you see them, they seem to smile at you but in truth they are just smiling at your companions and not at you.
And you wonder why they seem not to like you despite your effort, and you can't do anything but to feel sad for not being liked.
OUCH.
