Away..
January 7, 2016
My teacher is talking.
Rambling on about some
regents exam. Although I
should be listening, I am away.
My body is here.. but
My mind, my heart, and my soul
is gone. I am not even sure
if this is healthy anymore.
I'm never here, dialed in.
I wish to listen to my teacher.
I wish to hear that oh-so-boring
mathmatical chatter. But no,
that all seems physically, along
with emotionally impossible.
My words slur, my eyes drift..
I am somewhere happy.
Somewhere I can't possiby be sad.
While my teacher is talking,
I am gone.
I am away.
I am happy.
