Just a fool

by Jaklynn   Jan 13, 2009


No, I don't have plans tonight
But then again, do I ever?
Who knew that with a few extra pounds
College would be such a hard endeavor

I dont have friends to get drunk with
So on weekends I try my best to escape
But when I can't I sit in my room
And give my battered heart time to reshape

I walk in silence and listen to people
Girls talking and walking on the street
Telling their best friends about parties
And boys that they hope to meet

I wonder if my best friend is out there
If they are just someone I haven't met
But no one even bothers to notice me
Because everyone's views are so set

I look out my window and notice the girls
Dressed up pretty in high heels
Going out no doubt to have fun
And my heart can't hide how it feels

The tears come quick and hard tonight
As all my so-called friends have plans
So I sit here in silence and wonder now
If I will ever be a fantasy of any man's

I hate my school I hate my life
And I dont really have any friends
Find myself counting down til I can go home
Where my broken heart can mend

This is my own fault though, I guess
For being a fat girl here at a party school
I thought for once I'd fit in somewhere
But I realized I was nothing but a fool.

    Jacklynn,

    This poem is written well, but the content is all wrong.
    I took a good look at your picture and I see a pretty girl there! You have beautiful features, sweetheart!
    If you are not happy with your weight then join a local gym. There you will find girls like you that are insecure too and they will become your fist friends. Go to a hairdresser that gives you a cut suited for your pretty little face. Go jogging, it will do wonders for both your skin, color of your cheeks and your mood!
    Why do I tell you all this? I used to be just as insecure as you and I did all the things I mentioned above;)
    Go for it girl, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain:)

    Hugs,

    5/5 Ingrid
