A break

May second was the day.

The day we said okay..

May fifteenth you needed a break.

Was I too fake?

Before I sleep, I have to cry

Because no one wishes me a good night.

School day is all a blur.

Conversations turn to murmurs.

I try to wear a fake smile.

Because the real ones left.

They left for miles and miles.

Everything was a mess.

Tests had low scores.

I got very bored.

Tears threaten when I see you.

I miss it when you call me boo.

You said we'll be back together.

Together forever.

A day feels like a year.

Two days feel like I'm not even here.

If you want to let go,

Just say so.

I can give up hopes now.

And just keep my head down.
