Current mood: cold
Music: saves the day - as your ghost takes flight
so its still snowing. which means that my usual 20-30 minute drive to school will turn into a 40 minute to an hour drive to school. that's not cool. so i'm freezing. i did homework all weekend. i got a 24 on my ACT, i suck. mike is going to teach me math and i'm retaking it. too tired to write more. pray for a snow day.




The window fogs from my breath
My face pressed up close, up close against
Catching the snowfall under a beam of streetlight
And praying for accumulation all through the night

These confrontations puncture the skin
Reveal evidence that you are easily broken
You're so easily broken
Exposed and relentlessly bleeding from the cracks
At that age when everything is seemingly life or death

Please let the snow swallow the streets whole
Keep the bus from coming
Let us stay at home
So we can avoid the daily drudgery
The cruelty fueled from laughter that will echo in our sleep

Seasons, weakening the hold
The blades dulled from the front that hints the snow
Warming engine slowly turns
Stuttering awoken from the sounds of shovels scraping concrete
At that age when everything is seemingly life or death

Adrenaline fuels my
Fist grinds my teeth through sleep

I can't believe it's snowing by you. I've cut my grass several times already. Oh boy..
