Sorry for You, Truthfully

By Nayma Russi

Age 15

 

Sorry for you, truthfully

Nothing more, sullenly

Take it all in and

Shove it down

Nothing more to talk about

Nothing more to say

Take it all in today

Then shove them down the other way

Breathe in breathe out

Don't take it for granted

Isn't this what you wanted?

Hands up hands down

Surrender the truth

And surrender your freedom

Over and out

Just slow down.

Take it all in and

Shove it all down.
