I'm currently in the library;
Earbuds in,
Drowning out all else that doesn't matter

Thoughts swarm like wasps
Going from my brain,
Through my blood,
And attacking my heart

I sob from the pain
And the memory of you
So I avert my gaze,
And keep my head low
Because I mustn't show weakness here
For this school and society is survival of the fittest
And every individual's soul is an animal

I walk among bears and jaguars that'll tear me apart
Killing me slowly with words and jokes
For that I must remain unnoticed

So I wipe away the tears
And stifle my sobs,
Put on my disguise, casting shadows on my emotions
While I stand back,
Letting my wasp-like thoughts rot my heart
I don't even know what this is so I doubt it makes sense so, sorry.
Feel free to share revision ideas :)
