Lonely, by myself,
in the night.
A dark vast sky of pitch black
waiting outside my window.
It reminded me that time was running out and due dates were approaching.
I quickly began to realize that time wasn’t an ally
but an enemy.

Time was whizzing by quickly
as the adrenaline filled my veins.
My mind begins to quickly regain focus
as I try to contemplate how much work I have to do.

Then all the due dates pass before my eyes in a matter of seconds
Before I could even react.
One, by one, by one.
As the zeros start to pop up and decimate my grade
the adrenaline slowly drains from my system
as more zeros start to appear.

I get cold and felt like my eyelids were holding weights.
I ended up slowly dragging my self to bed as tears run pass my face and
down my chin.

They drop as they get absorbed into my pillow
Then to be wakened up to my alarm that was bursting with sound.
My face begins to get hot with rage as I get up to get ready for school
to start another day.
