They Don’t Like Me – Written Sunday 24th July 2005 (Aged 30)

They Don’t Like Me

they don’t like me
can’t say i care
except i am thinking about it
sitting here
their little comments
in between lines of sweetness
and when people leave the room
the outright rudeness
who they think i am?
this is not school with,
some kind of bullying hierarchy
just because,
you have spent your life as a victim
does not mean,
you have to seek others
on which you feel you can step on
i don’t like you either
people like you,
are hollow, suspicious and empty
you are cheap gin by the bottle
you have a strange view
they don’t like me
i don’t like you
