The Leader

If only they knew how hard it is for me. I'm turning 16, the world I begin to see. My friends began to change, right before my eyes, and now they seemt o laugh, and tell all sorts of lies. They hang around together in groups of three or four; the language they use..it isn't gentle anymore. The kids that seem most lonely wind up in their pack, and those that stand alone, they talk behind their back. Somehow I fell rejected because I don't conform. Those that step to their own beat don't seem to be the norm. I've watched a few just fade away, with drugs and alcohol; and many more have given up, too many to recall. Alcohol is an option for everyone in my school. I've lost a friend to booze again;I will not be a fool. And sex, it seems so open, for everyone to explore. Three girls I know that came to school don't come here anymore. If only I could make a difference, what could I do or say? I would go to school and try my best each and every day. There is one thing I'd like to do before I graduate. I'd like to touch them one by one before it is too late.
