What's on your mind?
Nothing much,
(everything everything
so many things, all the things
the voting age should be older
my math class is hard
i have a story idea and it's eating at my brain
sometimes i wish i was a boy
i hate allergies and my throat hurts
i have a headache, and i don't know why
there were too many people at lunch today
why can't i be normal
where does wind come from
the sun is fucking awesome
i think my plants are growing
why do we forgive atrocities committed with holy water
i know the meaning of life and it scares me
i'm alone but not lonely
somethings fundamentally wrong with my brain
im spiraling and i dont know why and im scared
im going to fail and fail and fail
i have so many ideas and they HURT
my brain HURTS from everything inside of it
all of these stories and they wont go away
it HURTS but what can i do
i cant tell you this because i have no words
my thoughts cant fall neatly into the confines of language
everything sucks and i hate it but what can i do
i want to read but i cant and that makes me mad
i love love love reading but i cant and im furious
one day ill finally be alone
good or bad?
everything HURTS and i cant do anything
im scared of the world im inheriting
im scared of you but i dont know why
people are mad at me and i dont know why
i dont KNOW and im SCARED
im TERRIFIED that i dont KNOW
im scared im scared im scared im scared
imscaredimscaredimscaredimscar-)
How about you?
