Rapid Change

By Oscar O’Neill-Pugh

It was without a doubt,

That I would be forgotten, left behind.

Although I did not really pout,

As I really didn’t mind.

It was clear that I didn’t belong.

Despite having no friends, I still came along.

Surrounded by Sports fans and athletes,

Was the weird kid, his sports a little offbeat.

 

He wasn’t built with muscle or strong like a tank,

He was pretty damn lanky to be perfectly frank.

Although on this rigorous trip,

He had uttered no strife,

As it was the adventure that made his heart skip

and filled him with life.

 

Although as he perched there, alone,

On a green grassy hill top.

Watching the fast flowing rapids,

That only time could ever stop.

He was filled with happiness that had no loose ends,

Because despite being different, I had managed to make friends.
