my fault
I won
I did it again
but if I tally their scores my failures out measure my winnings
I cannot feel a moments success
because of one failed test
my emotions don’t come in waves no
sometimes I wonder if i feel anything at all
I do of course
I feel angry
Disappointed
And then nothing at all
Nothing except the pit of my empty stomach because the teachers’ lips turned down
I am so full of self hatred
That i convince myself nothing is my fault
To keep from completely falling apart
Because it is
It is all my fault-cc.
