[ WP ] `` I am not them . This is who I am . ''

I walk the halls 
 Aware of the people 
 That pass me by. 
 The boys 
 Toss a football 
 Back and forth 
 In the dim light 
 Of the 
 Sickening 
 Pale 
 Flickering 
 White 
 Florescent 
 Bulbs. 
 The girls 
 With their 
 Bubblegum pink lips 
 Walk with hips 
 Swinging side to side 
 In their `` Wall'' 
 Formation 
 Where they 
 Walk slowly in 
 A straight line 
 From one side 
 Of the hall to the other. 
 I AM NOT THEM. 
 There are the nerds 
 With their 
 Mountains of 
 Textbooks in their arms 
 And the geeks with 
 The world in their backpacks, 
 ( It's an atlas ) 
 Fawning over the girls 
 With the bubblegum pink lips 
 Fantasizing a world 
 Where they are the 
 Prince 
 And the girls they see are the 
 Princesses. 
 I AM NOT THEM. 
 There are the teens 
 Hair 
 Hanging 
 Haphazardly 
 Across one eye 
 Leaning against the lockers 
 Unsure what they should feel 
 Avoiding the jocks 
 Throwing a football 
 Down the hall 
 Unaware 
 But do n't care 
 Their 
 Fun and games 
 Could hurt 
 The people walking those 
 Same 
 Lonely 
 Corridors 
 Those 
 Seemingly endless 
 Walls have seen 
 More people than 
 You 
 I 
 Anyone 
 May see in our lifetimes. 
 I AM NOT THEM. 
 I am the one 
 Who swims in the deepest 
 Of oceans, 
 Touches a star with my 
 Bare hands, 
 And fights off 
 Zombies 
 Aliens 
 And dragons 
 All at the same time. 
 And all 
 With the turn of a 
 Beautiful 
 Ink marked 
 Page. 
 THIS IS WHO I AM.
