"Are you okay?"
"Yeah
I'm just really tired
From last night
A lot of homework,
And studying,
Dinner with my family.
I didn't get to sleep
Till midnight.
I'm feeling great.
Thanks for asking, though"
"No.
I'm just really tired
Of this life
A lot of cutting
And crying
I didn't eat dinner
I didn't get to sleep
Till 4am
I'm feeling suicidal
Thanks for asking, though"
