Stupid

By Rosalea Grout
Spaulding High School, Grade 12

This is stupid
they're all laughing

Laughing at me
My writing
What I write about

Laughing deep down
Inside...
Inside they're jealous
Because I'm good...
Good at writing...
Good at reading...
Good at drawing...

But they still laugh
Still...
Always...
forever...

And no matter what
It still hurts
When they laugh...

It always will and forever
hurt when they laugh...
