High School


When I was in high school

 

My friends left me all alone

And I fell into a deep depression

 

I was in my first relationship

He abused me and I am still recovering from the pain he caused

 

I swallowed two boxes of NyQuil thinking it would kill me

Only to wake up at 3am in the bathroom puking my guts out

 

I saw my father for the first time in 11 years

He didn’t remember my birthday

 

They say high school will be your golden years

Well I guess something went wrong  

Because high school has been the worst years of my life
