#overreacting
I sat in silence anxiously deciding certainly overreacting a sudden desire to change flooded my heart with courage their voices startled me my mind failed to be calm with each beat after beat coming so quickly but soon their laughter filled me with ease and I could find myself finally at peace

why am i scared of something so small?
i can’t tell if i’m broken or not. am i okay? is thinking of ending myself just a reflex as this point? a coping mechanism that fills the space that the absence of sadness leaves blank. do i want to die, or do i simply want to sleep? am i just tired? overreacting? depressed? did i finally crack and spill over? am i empty now?

am i just tired?
Thoughts racing, heart chasing. You're mad, I'm sad. Can't stop shaking, there's no faking When I see you in the halls, I stall, hide behind a pillar, a friend, anything Just to avoid the awkward eye contact. I'm not good at confrontations, at the mere thought of it I flee.. You might think I'm crazy or immature, But when you told me to stop talking to you my mind went a blur.. My friends say you're overreacting, over something so small. I fear you'll dump me, leaving me lonely.. I'm so sorry.. Please forgive me?

Less
My body is unhappy because I ate a packet of energy Goo before I took a nap. My mind is unhappy because because now I don't know what you think of me. **** I'm never eating that **** during a non-sports season ever again... Why did I say that?
