Today- Poetry
Today I went to class
And sat in the corner
And pretended I was invisible
I hoped no one would see me
Or try to approach me
Today I went to school
And learnt about things
I don’t care about
Things I won’t remember
Things that will never help me in life
Today I walked around on the street
And looked at everyone
They all had the same look on their faces
The haunted look of conditioned minds
Made to do the same thing again and the again
Today I went home
And tried to speak my mind
But no one listened
You’re just a child, they replied
You’re too young to understand
Today I just realized
I don’t want to be here anymore
