Buckling under stress,
I'm drowning in tests,
Assignments,
And work.
Pressure to be
The perfect student.
It's draining.
Gone so much
I can't control it.
I break down in tears
Flowing down my cheeks
In streams.
"I can't handle it,
All this pressure.
It's too much for me to handle."
Writing.
The only thing that
Calms me.
Slows my thoughts.
Helps me think.
"I'm trying to catch up!"
But it's never good enough.
Another wave of work
Comes crashing down
On my sanity.
