Chewed up pen

English class,
2016,
I sat next to you,
My uniform clean,

My hair was up,
My glasses on,
I start to write,
My pen ink gone,

"Can I borrow a pen",
I ask you nicely,
You smile and say "sure",
I wait politely,

You pull out a pen,
It works but it's chewed,
I grin and say thank you,
The pen is well used,

I gave it you back,
You laugh at me then,
You look to me and say,
"Sorry it's a chewed up pen",

I laugh at you shyly,
"Its fine that you do,
Incase you didn't notice,
I chew mine too",

Its been three years,
Since that pen was used,
You still chew your pens,
And it's still just as cute.
