Uncool vs. Cool

by Trish   Jun 25, 2006


I hate this part of the day
everyday we all wake up knowing it's going to be the same
Going to the place that we all know where we belong
The cool and the uncool
Why do we put labels on ourselves?
It just makes no sense

We all go to school
And judge each other
We act like we are at war
The uncool vs. the cool
We call each other names
Cause we think it make us look cool

We all know that we are wrong on that
Why can't we just try to except each other?
Even though we think we are different
There are so many things we all have in common
Just the fact that we don't want to leave our groups
None of us want to try new things
We have our friends and we have our enemies

But why don't we change that
Why do we have to come to school,
And act like were all different?
We fight and call names
Where does that get us?
Sometimes you do things
And don't know what were doing
One of these times were going to hit someones last nerve
They will hurt themselves
And you will be the one to blame

So why can't we stop the name calling
The teasing
Yeah, to one person it is all a joke
But to another
It's something else
Something that gets to them
Brings them to a level that could cause a problem
Think about it do you want to have some ones life on your hands
Or in judgment on what you think is right and what they think is right

or we can end it
It just takes one persons word to end something
It don't take much
Just some long thinking
Do we want to put some ones life on chance in your hands?
Or should we just stop what we have started
And instead of being what we are
Uncool vs. Cool
Lets change that and be one thing
A school

    Good message, why can't the world just function without any problems?
    Maybe the theme even stretches beyond the setting of just a school? We all do bad things whether we mean to or not...humans just can't seem to coincide in peace. Oh, bother....

    I'm not going to point anything out, but there are a few grammatical errors in your poem that you should look into correcting, just for neatness' sake.

    good job!

    "Why can't we just try to except each other?"
    ^ except should 'accept'
    I'd also try putting some punctuation like commas, colon, semi-colons, periods, etc. at the end of the sentences so that they don't all run into each other, but thats just my opinion =)

    I think this poem has a very good message and I agree. I often think about this as well.. "why is it like that?" It's so weird and pointless... But I like this poem. Great job!!
