Can I please
Not go to school tomorrow
My eyes are swollen
I don't want to be seen
They've been dried
Poured out with
Anguish
Frustration
Hopelessness
Dejection
I want to hide
And the worst part
*Who do I turn to?

If I believe
There is hope
Will hope save me
From this devouring tunnel?

If you haven't noticed
That smile was
Fake
That forced smile
Hides a lot

Too close
Back off
Draw a line
Never cross

The magic number
That worked wonders
Its delicate balance
Now almost ruined

You **** with words
I **** with looks
Deal?

When you step in
I will get out
It's something like displacement
But this time with humans
