I can’t do tasks on time anymore

I’m not really hungry I lied

Looking at me with unbothered eyes

they said “Relax you’re just a child”

​

I can’t wake up early anymore

It’s a cacophony in my mind

Looking at my like I was crazy

they said “Calm down you’re just a child”

​

I can’t look into the mirror anymore

It’s getting hard to stick to rules they defined

Looking at me with an annoyed glance

they said “Smile you’re just a child”

​

I can’t bottle up my emotions anymore

Crying my tears ruin the makeup I applied

Looking at me while rolling their eyes

they said “Pull yourself together you’re just a child”
