I wake up.
Tear stained pillow,
Blankets thrown everywhere.
I have to get up.
It takes so much energy,
to push my body onto the paper covered floor.
I don't want to get up.
Wrapping myself in what's left of the blankets,
wincing at the pain felt as my body moves.
I lay there.
Mind whirls already of things that must be accomplished.
Can't I have just a moment of peace?
I get up.
My body aches as I step over the forgotten homework and ***** laundry,
Dizzyness and Lightheadedness cause me to stumble my way to my closet.
I walk.
Putting on clothes to cover the night before,
and starring at the unrecognizable figure before me in the mirror.
I get ready.
Making food that I'm never hungry for anyways,
and forcing my eyes to stay open.
I leave.
To go to a place I am scared to be in,
but sometimes is better than the place I left.

I wake up.
Tear stained pillow,
Blankets thrown everywhere.
I have to get up.
It takes so much energy,

I don't want to get up.

wincing at the pain felt as my body moves.

Mind whirls already of things that must be accomplished.
Can't I have just a moment of peace?

Putting on clothes to cover the night before,
and starring at the unrecognizable figure before me in the mirror.
I get ready.
Making food that I'm never hungry for anyways,
and forcing my eyes to stay open.
I leave.
To go to a place I am scared to be in,
but sometimes is better than the place I left.
I apologize, this is really bad
Ill fix it up later.
