I’ve never been popular,

and I never will be.

Good thing popularity’s

never been important to me.

But it’d be nice simply to

have a couple of friends—

someone to talk to

when the day ends,

someone to talk to

when I get really sad,

and someone to rant to

when I get really mad.

I just want one person

to think I’m worth something

because right now

I feel like I’m nothing.

I’m eighteen years old,

and I’ve never been on a date—

Never been kissed, or held hands,

or been told I’m great.

I’ve never been found attractive

by anyone,

and I can’t help but wonder—

why have I been shunned?

Okay, so I’m fat,

and I have a lot of acne—

but I’m nice, and I’m smart

and can be pretty damn funny.

Unfortunately, I can also

be incredibly shy.

Not good at meeting new people—

I’m not gonna lie.

I’m never going to be

one of those girls guys walk up to

because they see her and think

‘I’ve just got to meet you!’

I’m one of those girls

you must first get to know

before her good qualities

all start to show.

But nobody bothers

getting to know me.

I’ve never been worth the effort,

and I never will be.
