Hello everyone! Wow, it's been a while since I've updated. I'm so sorry for ghosting on you guys. School is keeping me busy and stressed out. Well, here's a poem.

***
I wake up ambitious and ready to learn,
I wake up exhausted with watering eyes,
I put my game-face on and make a right turn,
My knees collapse at the path and anxieties arise,
I walk through the hallway with my head held high,
I shrink into the nearest corner,
Oh, no, honey, I'm not shy,
I prefer to be away from human disorder,
I express my opinions so boldly,
Sometimes, I wish I could spare my mind the outrage,
Yeah, it gets a little lonely,
This feeling is something we must gauge!
I wish we were interlaced,
Maybe, I'm just too two-faced.
