Who does not try to fit into a clique
Posers try to be cool and better than you
There are all kinds of groups just take your pick
Every single person will have to pick too
Actors say they stand apart from the crowd
Yet they form a pack and reject the rest
They are all the same judgemental and proud
No wonder so many of them feel depressed
School is an emotional battlefield
A constant war with the world and yourself
You are bound to lose with lies as your shield
See past how people look and their wealth
Do not forget the most important part
Be true to yourself and follow your heart

&lrm;&quot;I&rsquo;m learning how to drown out the constant noise that is such an inseparable part of my life. I don&rsquo;t have to prove anything to anyone. I only have to follow my heart and concentrate on what I want to say to the world: I run my world.&quot; - Beyonc&eacute;

This is a good sonnet and this really tells about highschool and the people in it.

Keep writing... :)
I love your other sonnet, Dream of the Insane, too. :D
