Only day 6
And yet my backpack
Has left bruises in my back
Quizzes and tests
Have been sprung upon me
Only day 6
And yet friendships
Have already started
To weaken and decay
Unwanted comments
Surround me
Only day 6
My mind is already
Stretched and in pain
Fear of failing
Creeps up on me
Homework makes me
Stay up past my limit
Only day 6
My eyes are closing
As I write my poem
My fingers hurt
From gripping a pencil
Only day 6 and
I'm
Ready
For
It
To
Be
Over
If you can't do it for yourself
Then do it for her
Do it for the girl
With big ideas
And even bigger dreams
The girl who would try to count the stars
But then sigh and say there was a lot
I'm not sure how I feel about this poem, I don't think it's really good but I really wanted to participate in this challenge. :)
All times my heart has
Broken into pieces
I can’t breathe
No matter how hard I try
I’m still gasping for air
Drowning in the silence
Or in the noise
My own mind
Suffocating me
