And AnotherI hate when i get depressed, I really do, I mean, I try to be optimistic, And see the good I've got going for me, But then something happens, I see a picture, Hear a bit of conversation, And a memory flashes into my mind, followed by another, and another, and another, And suddenly I'm in that deep dark hole again, An endless chasm, With no way out, And no desire to find one.And Another


A Flutter In Your ChestEver experience that moment When you see someone,A Flutter In Your Chest
Someone you haven't seen in a long time?
Someone you've been longing to see.
And dreading.
And then there they are.
And you get that brief flutter in your chest.
A flutter that softly chokes you afterward.
And leaves you slightly lightheaded.
And then there they are.
And you're staring at them.
And they're staring at you.
And your eyes lock.
A moment passes.
And then... And then you see it's not truly them.
It's some other one that merely looks like them.
And you look away. &nbs

Poorly Hidden Laughterdays spent learning, nights spent forgetting, afternoons spent inPoorly Hidden Laughter
detention,
weeks of bells, desks,
and really bad food,
classes of lazy students with bad attitudes, and uncaring teachers with really bad breath,
crowded hallways, whispered snide remarks, poorly hidden laughter,
being the odd one out in a sea of conformity.
