Don't worry.
I'm used to being overlooked.
The gazes just sliding past me,
Never focusing on the girl
With the nice blond hair.
Being picked last for a team,
Not because they didn't like me.
They just forgot I was there.
Don't worry.
I'm used to being alone.
Getting called to hang out with the guys,
Playing video games,
And eating junk food.
One day, I showed up in a dress.
They all look startled.
Clearly, they forgot I was still a girl.
Don't worry.
I'm used to being criticized.
My gray eyes are too dark,
To be pretty.
I'm a bit too innocent looking
To have guys checking me out.
I am too awkward
For my clumsiness to be endearing.
Don't worry.
I'm used to being let down.
"I just have to get things figured out."
"I have to putting a couple of other
Things first right now, you understand."
Of course, I understand.
I don't know how to fight for you.
And if I did, would you even want me too?

"I have to putting a couple of other" assume this is a typo?
two-2
too-also
to- adds action to go, to eat, to write
Anonymousalmost 11 years agoOn the title:
"Don't Worry, I'm Used to It"
This line:
""I have to put a couple of other"
And, just for your consideration, possibly dropping the final letter in the last word of the poem. It would change the sound slightly, and the meaning also.
Five.
