Why
Do I have to learn this?
Math hates me
Didn't you know?
The triangles glare
The equations stare
The postulates and theorems whisper nasty things
The formulas judge
The polygons sneer
I just want to get out of here
Take me away
Back to English class
The one without the numbers

Remember the time that we were together?
Yeah, me neither.
I do remember wishing for it
Watching, waiting
For you to make that move
Everyone said you were going to make
But then, you didn't
I was tired, I was confused
I sent you a message
You replied
My waiting was over
My wanting was not.

Flecks of white falling down
Like an overgrown snow globe
I look out the window and think
About the cold
And how I don't feel it
Anymore
Not since you stole my heart
And didn't give it back
No, I just feel an emptiness
That won't go away
I remember when the cold and the snow
Were welcomed,
Because we had so many plans
There were so many adventures
That I will never take part in
Not with you
I look at the snow
And I just freeze.

I feel like God is testing me these days
Filling up my metaphorical plate
Way more than I would normally get at a buffet
I really want to pass this test
But its so hard
When I can feel my pretend smile drooping constantly
While people act concerned and say "what's wrong?"
And I can't tell them
Because I don't even know myself
