Classroom Fear

My fear in class is when the
Teacher says "Work in groups or partners"
Because I know no one wants to
Work with the emo girl in the back.
Noone wants to be seen with the pale
Girl draped in black..
"She's too strange"  They all say.
"She's creepy.".. Please, I can hear you..
You keep acting like I'm not here.
Why? What did I do wrong?
I can't understand what is wrong..
"She's so silent" They'll whisper..
Well if you can't understand my silence,
How can you understand my words?
Another fear is when,
"I will give you assigned groups." The
Teacher will say over the chattering children..
'That's just great, sure, give them one more reason
To mock me, a chance to laugh at the silent broken one.'
They all look down upon me.
Have I disgraced them in a way I do not
Yet know? They will say that
Their group sucks to their friends who are
In the other groups, and they point
Out the reason why.. They always point to me..
So silent I stay, til one day, my silence is
Understood, and my words with it.
I'll avoid these people, I'll linger
In the back whispering "Please,
No groups and no partners..."
In the back, I remain still,
I listen, I do not
Speak to anyone... If I do they all begin
To hate on me more...
Because who wants to work with,
Let alone talk to, the silent emo
Girl, who's draped in black...?
