Lunch Table

I always sit with my friends at lunch

At least when they want me to

 

I'll pick up their plastic bags and comments

And put them with the banana peels of the bin 

 

If they had it their way, or the way its supposed to be,

I'd be amoung those plastic bags and banana peels

Half eaten sandwiches and unwanted meals

But I have to insist they need me 

 

They do

 

Everyone needs someone to complain to

Everyone want someone to pick up their plastic bags and banana peels

 

At least my friends do

 

So they let me stay

They give me a spot at that table I'll never own

I always sit with my friends at lunch 

 

I always sit alone.
