Promises

"Do it, you know you want to." You say,
causing me to edge closer to the end of my seat.
I close my eyes for a moment and shake my head.
"No, shut up." I murmer.
People glance over at me as I duck my head under my hand.
"No use now, they're all looking at you."
"Thanks to you." I think in my head.
"It's not my fault you had to open your mouth."
I sigh outloud and lean back in my seat.
"Just leave me alone so I can finish my test."
"Only if you finally ask the hotty next to you out."
"After class okay?" silence. "Thank you."

Finished, finally, with ten minutes left.
I begin to scribble in the margins of the paper.

I hate your voice,
I hate your sound.
You scream at me,
make life so loud.

I cannot think,
I cannot speak.
They call me crazy,
and I grow weak.

I quiet you,
with stupid lies.
Broken promises,
are your demise.

  • Cool...

    A subject I can very much relate too...
    As a schizophrenic, this spoke to me in its simplicity, drawing on a moment in time when this happened to you...
    Keep up the good work...
    Well done!!!
