That which we persist in doing becomes easier, not that the task itself has become easier, but that our ability to perform it has improved.

It looms over me.
A could that never leaves
Slowly creeping up
Now a dense fog covering me

I surrender to the cloud
The light goes out
I am spinning
Around and around

I am lost
I don’t remember who I am
Who I was
When will I again be myself?

I’ve lost what I stand for
What I believe in
When will this false reality end?
When will I escape?

I catch a glimpse of what I used to be
My reflection in the water
Blurred everyday
I refuse to lose myself again

I regain consciousness
As I return to the real world
Not wanting to face another day
Of high school

Ok. So I think this is showing what high school can do to you if you're not strong in what you stand for. Tell me what you think!
God Bless!
