Dramatic Monologue assignment

"Middle School Peers"

Remember me? Yeah,

The ugly skinny one

In the dim hallway

Who didn't have fifty

Boys chasing her around,

The one who walked

With her head down

And looked up only at

The friends she made

With the few people

Who weren't rich snobs,

The one who got straight A's

And tried to be nice

To everyone around

But still wasn't good

Enough for all of you,

The one who struggled

With problems you'd never

Seen outside of the

Fake reality shows you

Watched on the popular

Television stations.

I almost came back to

Show you who I am now,

And show you someone

You can finally accept,

But I realized you'd like

Me for the wrong reasons.
