Typical

How strange,
That today
I would become
Typical.

Today I became all of the stories that people wrote about.
Today I became the cutter in the school bathroom.
Today I became the crier in the school bathroom.
Today I became the one to carve a message on the stall.

My knife was specially prepared today.
As if I knew something was going to happen today.
I sharpened it yesterday.
I wanted to use it yesterday.

I'm a nuisance.
I'm a failure.
I'm a grumbler.
I'm not what anyone wants me to be.

I've cut in places that I haven't before.
I thank the universe for teaching me how worthless I really am.

All because I'm not who they want me to be.

All because I'm not who they want me to be
