Is it possible to fail with an A+

Or do I just feel like I'm failing myself?

I'm the best one in your class,

But I still send emails making excuses for my declining grades. 

We both have short hair,

We could probably measure the inches,

Down to the centimeters, and the millimeters,

And it'd be the same length. 

I saw you today

And it felt like forever. 

Your eyes are like a poet's,

Everything fades when you're around

And I need you to know it. 

I can't describe this feeling 

It's one I've never known

But I know that it feels bad

And I can feel it in my bones

It's a distinct emptiness 

But not a hole or void

I just want someone

To hold me like you did,

But in a way I'm not suffocating

Under their poisonous grip. 

I want to fall in love,

As October comes into focus;

Running through those woods,

It's only four o'clock,

But I still should be home

Cleaning the whole house,

Like I have all the time in the world. 

It's only five o'clock, 

But dinner should be on the table,
