I stand alone,
with no one to talk to.
No one wants to be my friend.

When teams are picked,
I am always last.
All alone is how I am.

No matter where I go,
not a second glance is cast.
People just think because I stand alone,I want to be alone.

AW! *Sob* That's sad! It's really good, but it's so sad! But in a way, I think anyone can relate to this and I like that. Nice job on writing this!
