When I talked to my friends, I always feel at peace with them.

But when they talk about some of the accomplishments they've done,

I can't help but feel extremely envious.

As if I have yet to do something great.

He guessed the correct answer to this contest,

She entered a drawing contest and won,

he got to have his comic in the newspaper,

and so on.

How come I'm not doing anything great?

Was it because I'm a shut-in?

Because I don't have any special talents?

I can't do trivia or play sports,

and I can't sing or draw.

It feels as though the only talent I have is just reading and writing.

Sure, I post them online (somewhere else),

but it seems as though nobody will read them.

Add in the fact that everybody is independent

and I'm the friend who keeps hanging around.

I know I'm just complaining about this dull existence of mine,

but I can't help it.

Everybody complains too, don't they?

I'm just a bit more envious than others.
