You just have to get through high school, because high school sucks for anyone who is the least bit different.

My words are fragile,
One petal falling off the rose at a
Time.
The glass rose,
The unreliable one that could shatter
With just one wrong touch.
That's my life,
A glass rose,
Close to breaking any second.
The trembling,
The anxiety.
My petals are falling...
And they are slowly
Running
Out.
