Rating: 3.5


I wonder that the meaning of life is
If I have a purpose to live,
If I breath or not or if I belong
People stare through me, can they even see me
A person on Earth, an individual walking in circles
In a place they never wanted to be, they see right through you
Clear as a mirior your looking through, the reflection of yourself
Never pleases you, you ask why you look the way you do
When others say your ugly and you don't belong,
You wish to please the person you love when they told you to move on
A broken glass lays on the floor, cracked and you wonder why
If someone is out there listening to what you say or if they don't care
You want to be like others around you like popular and cool
When people at school call you a nerd because the people you hangout with
Being normal is all you want and to have people approve of who you are
Someone that is theirself and is unique like a sunflower in a vase with 12 roses
You walk someplace and people start giggling you wonder if their laughing at you
Your friends talk about Pokemon, Dragon Balls, or Avatar, you wish you could hangout with someone else
Not fitting in with the people you communicate with, is their anyone like you and me
I wonder what will happen to me....

I had people looking down their noses at me too..my clothes were handmade or hand-me-downs, I had no car in high school (not in fact until I was at least 20 and I worked and paid cash for it) and my appearance never seemed up to snuff to suit them. But- there's a whole world out there not encompassed by any school no matter how cool it's students think it is and they are- school doesn't last forever and everything- and everyone- changes..I think you got a whole lot of wonderful surprises coming in life- and just keep on writing, use the spellcheck, and now I see I wrote the same thing JB Lebuert wrote- because it's the truth! This won't really mean much to you now, but soon your eyes are going to open wide to the truth of life- and just let it in..and go with the flow, but keep your standards and your sense of worth high- and life is bound to treat you right!

I like the thoughts contained herein, but you need to use spellcheck or at least proofread your art a little better (purpose, breathe, mirror, etc.) I know you'll improve with each passing day, and high school will be over in a flash and that's when real life begins. I'm listening and I like what I hear - stop listening to what others think and start dancing to your own tune - that's what will make you unique. Aspire to great heights and you just may reach them. One key to life is to gain knowledge and the joy that comes with it. Don't waste time looking back or trying to change the things that are not flowing your way. You have so many lessons to learn and I hope they're not too hard for you to discern. Write On.
