I wrote this as an assignment in school. I really suck at rhyming, so forgive me if it is rough, as it did come from the heart. I wrote it a while before I joined Nexus, but recently found it in an old notebook and decided to post it. Without further ado, here it is:

 

Cold stone walls meet my frantic eyes

As groups of oblivious people smile and talk

Sometimes I can join them, feigning joy through my mental cries

More often, though, I just walk

 

Treading silently through this miserable hell,

Sadness emanates from my very bones

I spend the entire day anxiously awaiting the final bell,

While the others chat and use their phones

 

I find myself scrambling to stay sane

Though I am a numb shell, I must hold onto what is left of me

Depression and broken hope struggle for control of my brain

As I hopelessly battle myself for my sanity

 

Hope, despite her weakness, has won, allaying my fears

The bell's violent ringing fills my ears

Sounds like my brief time in school.
