Drowning ©

by Georgi   May 2, 2005


A perfect day, a prefect school,
Surrounded by my friends,
Nothings bad, and nothing cruel,
The last lesson before the end.

Sitting carefully, feeling numb,
A sharp pain crosses my head,
happiness is overcome,
With fear, and pain, and dread.

Eyes focused on the wall ahead,
not one single place to go,
the looks of hatred seem to spread
The clock is going so slow.

Eyes fixed onto my painful wrist,
as if they're glued in one spot,
Staring as if i don't exist,
as my stomach ties in a knot.

Their looks are suffocating me,
I can hear the things they're saying,
Four walls are caving in on me,
inside my head I'm praying.

I'm drowning slowly, feeling hurt
the judgments so much clearer,
The buttons tighten on my shirt,
The walls are getting nearer.

My breath goes short, losing grip,
the room around goes black,
My arms go weak, my legs they slip,
Feels like a heart attack.

Even more are staring now,
on the floor I'm lying still,
Wondering why? wondering how?
Just remember; looks can kill.
