Chipped answers
With a clipped smile
Cheap excuses
With a **** composure.

Oh, anger isn’t what everyone makes it out to be.

Gagged words
With a glad hiss,
Drab hair with
Dragging eyelids.

Oh, uncertainty isn’t what everyone e makes it out to be.

Falling bodies
With failing ankles,
Fading purpose with
Flailing hands.

Oh, giving up isn’t what everyone makes it out to be.

Gripping papers
With grasping fingers,
Fastening the edges of a
Long-lasting chamber.

Oh, anxiety isn’t what everyone makes it out to be.

Breathing hearts with
Beating lungs,
Being human with a
Bleeding tongue.

Oh, life isn't what everyone makes it out to be.
