what's it like?

by billysue - Capricorn

what's it like to be popular? 
to have your heart's desire? 
what's it like to have friends, 
who share your every fiber? 
how does it feel, 
not to hurt at all? 
how does it feel, 
when you never fall? 
what's it like, 
to be loved by everyone? 
what's it like, 
to be hated by no one? 
how does it feel, 
when life goes right? 
how does it feel, 
when hope is within sight? 
what's it like, 
to be a burden to no one? 
what's it like, 
to be everybody's all-in-one? 
how does it feel, 
when every path is straight? 
how does it feel, 
when life is perfectly great? 
is it fun to be popular, 
and ignore your old friends? 
is it fun to be nice, 
to everyone except me? 
what's it like to ignore me, 
and cause me great sorrow? 
what's it like, 
to think I may not be here tomorrow? 
would that change your perspective? 
would that change your outlook? 
would that change your feelings? 
or would you close this open book? 
can I ever have you as a friend? 
or am I just a freak? 
do my looks, actions, features, 
overpower what I speak? 
what is it like: 
to be ignored? 
to be detested? 
to wonder every night, 
about your messed up life? 
of course you wouldn't know. 
what's it like to feel all of these emotions? 
what's it like to give up? 
ask me, and you'll find out.
