Surprise me

Another rumour going around the halls

Pushing me repeatedly up against the walls,

Another poke in an open wound

With a harder punch coming at me very soon

Another smile flashing this way

Just moments before rain will pour down today

Another person just walking pass

But isn't that person someone I know?

Yes. Yes it is. And yet,

We don't know each other at all.

They will ditch you; leave you alone halfway

Down the lonely road.

They will watch you, hung in midair 

Catching your breath with no air coming in

All of those harsh words 

They can't puncture an already hollow hole.

Next time you want to hurt me,

Make it original.

Surprise me.
