Original Poetry Fan Fiction ❯ A teenagers book of depressing poems. ❯ Thoughts ( Chapter 22 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

 
As their eyes bore into me,
Their words ghosting over my ears,
I stare blankly into their blurred faces,
Not caring, detached from my peers,

I do not know, nor do I care,
Feeling time pass as quickly as water,
I just sit here, and stare,
Knowing nothing will make me falter,

But niggling doubt is crossing my mind,
There's something wrong somewhere,
Something out of line,
I'm not good at pretending everything is fine,

When trust is something long forgotten,
And promises look like lies,
When memories fade, and lie untouched,
And I'm too disheartened to try.
