that school is starting soon
summers ending,
on a broken tune.

to fake my smile
and say I'm okay

when that time comes
I might just break down
in the middle of the
empty crowd.
I'm not ready
to smile again
the kind that hurts
deep inside your chest
to feel like dirt
amongst the rest.
Summer's ending in a couple days
and I'm not ready
to pretend to be okay.
