Misfits

By A S Varisha

 How do I fit in?
 Cut my hair an inch shorter?
 Wear my jeans an inch higher, or lower?
 Smirk, not smile?
 Or maybe smile all the time?
 Maybe show some personality?
 But not be "too much of myself"
 
 
 How do I fit in ?
 Say all others that are weak suck
 Not look kindly at the ones who are getting crushed
 Laugh at the uncomfortable jokes
 Maybe add a few quips of hurt of my own
 Agree with the majority, make it my second nature 
 Praise who lets my survive with ornature
 
 
 How do I fit in?
 Read what everyone's reading, watch what everyone's watching
 Say the same things, hate the same hate Borrow opinions, and emotions too
 Maybe I just can't fit in?
 Maybe I don't want to?
 Maybe I just can't.
 Is living on the outside an option?
