She is ... He is

the one in the back of the classroom
daydreaming of time better spent
on mountain tops of silence

the one texting in class
laughing with his friends
all the ones on the football team

the girl with the snake bitten lips
six inch wedged heels
standing out of place

 the guy wearing the name brand clothes
and football jacket
a high school celebrity

the girl you laughed at today
behind her back to break
 as she pretends not to care

who pushes people around
all high and mighty in the halls
living in a dream

listening to death metal
hoping to drown out the sound
screaming out the lyrics in despair

listening to the sound of his fans
as they call out his name
drinking in the fascination

all dressed in black
to cover up the bruises
looking for a way out

the brightest shinning star
to fill the school
looking like a celestial freak

sitting in the cemetery
spelling her name
with words of defeat

searching for a girl
who can hold the dark to his light
walking on the empty street

crying for freedom
someone to hold her close
little does she know

the one to hold her close
and protect her
form the demons in her dreams
