February

Rei (A.J.M.)

In school, I walk around,

getting looked at like a lonely clown

Thinking," why am I still in this damn town".

People pass by

Saying things like "single on v-day? Why?."

And that's just one more reason to cry.

On top of that,

I can't help but just feel fat

While my skeletal frame makes me look like a starved rat.

Home harbors hell,

My room is just a cell.

And I can't shake the feeling that I just fell.

In falling, I'm calling,

But the silence will never stop continuing.

Only the scream of loneliness will forever ring.

I will forever hate February.

For, a love to me it will never carry.

Unlock my cage, show me love, and set me free.
