Awesome: Part 2, Chapter 1

My friends left without me

The ends of my pants are caught under my shoe

And the water below my feet reflects the sky’s muddied blue

I forgot my umbrella at home

But I’ve never minded the rain

I just wish the cars driving by would stop splashing me and stay out of the bike lane

And I don’t have anyone to pick me up

But it’s okay

I need the exercise from walking anyway

And once I get home the dogs will bark

And I’ll feel pretty alone

But I’m not, moms just calling someone from work on the phone

My brother moved out almost a year ago

Mom said it’s because he didn’t wanna feel like a burden 

But I don’t think I could ever call him something like that, especially since he’s a really cool person

He only visits like once every few months 

And it’s funny cus we used to fight almost everyday

But now every time we hang out I have so much to say

My moms dog is getting kind of sick

And I’m just sad because we’ve had her since I was a baby

She’s just making me so worried lately

My mom took her to the vet and they said it didn’t seem like anything bad

So I guess I have nothing to worry about 

But since she’s 13 just like me, so I still have a bit of doubt

I think it might just be me but I never really liked super long school breaks

Cus all my friends are on trips in some place super far away

And they get to do fun stuff all day

Don’t get me wrong, I have fun on breaks too

But this year I have to spend most of my break at my dad’s house

And he randomly gets mad at me and shouts

It’s not all bad though

Like my dog is here

I just wish I could bring her with me everywhere

But when I used to bring her over to my mom’s some snitch told the landlord 

It was probably because she was barking too loud

And having dogs that the landlord doesn’t know about isn’t allowed 

My moms dog is dead

And I don’t know what to do

And out of all things it’s just that I wish I knew

My mom keeps crying

And I feel really bad

I’ve never seen my mom so sad

I’m staying at my moms for a while

Cus I don’t think she wants me to go

Or maybe I’m doing it for me, I don’t know
