Are minds supposed to race so much at 10:30 pm? Every sound Sight Touch Igniting more anger and uncomfort But silence doesn't make it better Nothing does Maybe if I were smarter I wouldn't be so confused Stuck doing 15 papers at 10 pm Every question Or sentence in a book Making me more confused and infuriated My stomach churning with anxiety My head aching My face wet with tears of defeat Don't open that box You've been clean for so long And I didn't I didn't open the box And didn't grab the farmiliar blade within it I know I couldn't stop once I did So I didn't It's not easy But I'm trying I promise

I'm Trying
Are minds supposed to race so much at 10:30 pm? Every sound Sight Touch Igniting more anger and uncomfort But silence doesn't make it better Nothing does Maybe if I were smarter I wouldn't be so confused Stuck doing 15 papers at 10 pm Every question Or sentence in a book Making me more confused and infuriated My stomach churning with anxiety My head aching My face wet with tears of defeat Don't open that box You've been clean for so long And I didn't I didn't open the box And didn't grab the farmiliar blade within it I know I couldn't stop once I did So I didn't It's not easy But I'm trying I promise
So I don't even know what this is. This barely makes sense,but whatever. I think I just had/am having an end-of-the-school-year-crisis,with the piles of homework and everything. I even had the whole mental-breakdown-crying-emotional part,too. I'm okay now,I hope,I just wanted to write something,since I hadn't in a while.
