merely here

swedishme123

I looked away;

stupidity came way. 

a birdseye view of my dismay

you may hear it ear to ear

people are not welcome here.

labeled a threat; 

an eminent debt 

friend or foe-I don't know 

a full cup I do not crave; 

and I won’t fill yours any day       

social constructs pave the way

for something very not ok

  • Comment from author about the poem: I was talking to my sister and somehow we trailed off to a conversation about a girl in my class. I do not like her but from my pov I treat her normally the same way I treat everyone else, which is a good middle ground between acquaintance and friend. if anything I treat her better then that, even though I don't want to spend time around people like her. I was told to make her feel like she belonged. but I'm not an asset to be thrown around
