TRY
you try and you try
to impress the other kids
to get them to notice
to see you exist
you'd lie for then wouldn't you?
You'd cry for them wouldn't you?
You try and you try
to impress the other kids
but you know what
I'd do for them to notice you?
I'd try and I'd try
to impress the other kids
to get them to notice
to see you exist
but I would not lie
and I should not cry
they would see through your lies
to impress them with a suit and tie
you know what I'd do?
For them to notice you?
I'd try for you to be
a little more like you.

this is a poem that I needed to write a "write like" about the poem "we real cool" by Grendalin Brooks. (sorry if I spelled the name wrong) and at first, I really struggled to write this poem, which I find strange, because the outcome of the poem is one of my favorites. so, thanks for reading, and I hope you liked it.
