Radioactive Child

by ryan   May 19, 2004


Sometimes i feel like a radioactive child,
I may act a little strange, but really i'm not wild.

Everyday when the bell rings i run straight to home,
Because if i stay at school i will only be alone.

The other kids avoid me, treat me like a danger,
No one understands i don't want to be a Lone Ranger.

Oh, i don't desire to be the kid that is the best,
I just wish i wasn't shunned, but treated like the rest.

If they could get to know me, they would think i'm charming,
But at times it seems they fear that i may be harming.

I'd like to meet a friend or two who would treat me kindly,
Instead of all the mean kids who like to talk behind me.

Right now they only visit me to drink my milk and steal my money,
But i think that if they knew me they would find me pretty funny.

I swear it is the truth that i emit no deadly aura,
And i hope that just maybe i will make a friend tomorrow.

    i'm sorry you go through this, children can be so cruel. just keep in mind it is only highs school or junior high, and your life forming relationships will come when you are older. this wont be how it is forever. in high school i was unpopular, but in college i was immensly popular, and have since formed many long lasting frindships with people who are good, kind people. this will happen for you also. in the mean time i keep you in my prayers, and my thoughts are with you.
