Oh To Be A Little Bird And Spread My Graceful Wings

Oh to be a little bird and spread my graceful wings

Across the bleak and grey winter skies I could soar and sing

Far away, I would fly, until I found the warmer days of spring

Then further on, I would soar, because I'm just a silly thing

I guess if I keep spending all my time writing instead of doing my work, I should join my school news paper or something. At least get some extra credit for being a professional idiot

I feel so unstable, don't think I'll ever be able to function like the rest.

everyday is repetitive, everyone's so damn competitive, and I'm overwhelmed by stress.

I wish I was clean and pretty, small and skinny, and maybe, just maybe, I will be someday.

if I'm only a good in concept, and I'm just another reject, why can't it be in the manic pixie way?

Life's like a test, it's not easy. But it's as if everyone got the answer key, and I was left to guess.

I feel hollow, and all I do is wallow, when did my life become such a mess?

At the start of class earlier, my professor gave a whole ass monologue about the assignment I didn't do and how we need to do our work. I was so sure this was about me, because of course everything is about me, but, apparently in a class of 20+ students, only one did that darn analysis

I want to be productive, I want to be creative

but no matter how hard I'm working, I just kinda hate this

hate being stuck in my head. Hate getting better, and then wishing I was dead

I hate feeling stuck in a cycle

And so, I just keep working. But, my thoughts are still disturbing

Have I always been like this? am I breaking through denial?
