My World Is Crumbling

My world is crumbling

Beneath my feet.

I can only collapse

Helpless with tears

Streaming down my cheeks.

A million things happen at school

While a million things happen in my head.

No one can understand the chaos I am facing.

As these lines grow longer, my sanity grows shorter.

No one can hear the desperation in my words.

But which words?

In my head?

Or in my voice?

But everyone is so ignorant

To the student standing before them.

No one takes a moment to notice

The tears streaming down my cheeks

And the straining of my voice.

You Never Know

You never know

Who you're talking to

And what they've been through.

You never know

Which stories are

Fact or fiction.

You never know

A person's past.

Their successes

And defeats.

You never know

A person's story,

So respect everyone.

Always.

Only Few Understand

It's getting bad again.
Thoughts swarm
Every free moment.
Only few understand.

I'm being suffocated
By the air surrounding,
Gasping for a breath.
Only few understand.

Sleep is better
Than the war
In my mind.
Only few understand.

I'm forgetting how
To paint the smile
Upon my mask.
Only few understand.
