Here's the truly awful
Thing about grief
I move into school
In eleven days
And I'm stressed out of my mind,
More than I can bear.
I desperately need to lock myself
In a room
And crank out the applications,
Letters, speeches, essays & journals
I do desperately need to write
And yet
I cannot stand to be alone
Because the second I'm left
With my own thoughts
All I can think of
Is how dull my heart feels
As it cracks and shatters
Inside my chest
