as i've barely eaten in days, i'm stressed by school work. i feel that i'm burdened and punished for my faults.
but nonetheless it's friday night,
and i should be out with friends making memories, but i just can't.
i can't stay up watching horror movies
or texting friends like i used to
because my soul is tired
and i realize i will never live up to anyone's expectations.

poems to books i'll never write and lyrics to songs i'll never sing Where stories live. Discover now
