Everyday is a struggle.
I drag myself out of bed after half an hour of ignoring repeated alarms as exhaustion continues to overtake me.
I only have a few minutes to get ready now.
I leave on the same shirt that i slept in.
I haven't showered in days.
I skip brushing my teeth and washing my face.
I simply change my pants and leave.
I pass by the blank faces of people that I once knew.
But who are they now?
No one talks to me anymore.
The friends I once had are now strangers that barely even glance my way.
I ignore the usual classroom buzz as I lay my head down on my desk and drift off.
I am failing all of my classes.
I have no motivation to succeed.
Lunch is just another time to sleep for me.
I have no appetite.
No energy to do the things I once adored.
After I arrive home the routine is the same.
Take a nap.
I ignore the homework building up in my backpack.
I ignore the fact that I haven't showered.
I ignore the fact that I slept through all of school.
I ignore the fact that I haven't had a solid meal since last week.
I ignore the fact that my mind is in shambles.
I ignore the fact that my mind is screaming at me to try but my body shouts failure.
I simply.
Ignore it.
