Not With Them Poem by Dan Lukman

He wants to talk, but not to them.

He wants to play, but not with them.

He wants to text, but not to them.

He wants to be noticed, but not by them.

He wants to hang out, but not with them.

He wants to smile, but not with them.

He wants to give love, but not to them.

He just wants friends, just not like them.

He just wants love, just not like theirs.

He just wants joy, but not with them.

He's in this world, with only them...
