For You.

A Poem by JoJo Hallows

Please excuse me while I go to the bathroom, looking off to keep the tears in. I can't face you. Head in water because it's easier to breathe under than exchange air with you.
A cheshire smile is more clever than an aching heart. Smell my fingertips and remember all last nights festivities. Stumbled in the morning; made my attitude so s****y. You say I'm looking skinny. My face sunken and sullen,Life's got me feeling like a glutton.

Can't you see? I'm trying my hardest to just be a cameo in your life. All I want is to be your greatest preformance.

Please excuse my while I got to the bathroom. Looking out the window, hoping today will kill all my yesterdays; it's the same ole' sun. When you tell me just to give up and run, there's still hope tomorrow that the making of our chance has just begun.
