Glancing around, Fight,

In the glaring sun, Until,

Emotionally stressed, Can,

To my breaking point, Sit,

Close to tears, Down,

The conformation of my fears, And,

It’s the last thing I need, Away,

So I tough it out. Today,

Doing all I can to hold back the tears, Needing,

Fighting them anyway I know how, Composure,

With laughter and smart remarks, Until,

So the crying doesn’t start, Then,

Being childish enough already, When,

I don’t need this added to my list, Today,

Of unacomplishments, Is,

Emotionally shaking, Through,

Too much, Tomorrow,

It’s all too much I,

. Begin,
