Just stay away you pest, don’t move I say!
Strangers though we may be, you care no less.
Closer, closer to me, you start to stray.
Your legs spread out in hope for one caress.
Slowly you move into my marked threshold.
I feel your arms, body and bum pressed close,
too close for any comfort at all, withhold!
They think we are lovers in this tight pose,
sharing precious moments in times like these.
I don’t know why you make me feel so squeezed.
Suppressed, oppressed, I start to gasp for air.
To my chagrin, your head droops on my hair.
I glare at you but you pretend to sleep.
I have no choice but move to the next seat.

I am alone all by myself at last.
Locked in my room, I can choose how to be.
I need not act nor think of props and cast
which one chooses with care for all to see.
No more smiling facades to please them all
which I display with so much ease and grace.
I’ve learnt it through practice to act this tall,
to make them like me and speak good of me.
Now all alone, I tear the mask off me.
With it removed, all the pretence is gone.
I no longer need to hide my feelings.
I can now bare my soul and speak the truth
against those whom I loathe but act to like.
The door bell rings, I wear my mask again.

Chastised, disgraced, humbled, shamed and ignored,
I ran to one corner to hide.
I hear all their cheers of triumph proclaimed
which makes a good contrast with my lost pride.
My eyes swollen, this has just gone too far!
The days of hurt and pain shall be no more.
Just who do these wretched girls think they are?
I must have what is termed revenge one day.
To rid them feigned vestals once and for all.
The hate inside me seeks no more delay
which will unleash the force still kept at bay.
Prepare to take up arms and do battle.
I will torture them based on my own way.
For them to shout mercy – the price they pay.
