Every morning I wake up with buzzing in my head, pain in my stomach, and rocks in my shoes. School again. Stupid. Lazy. Try harder. Think harder. Hard.
Hard to read. Hard to write. Hard to spell. Hard to understand.
Everyone else can do it. Their day will be light, bright, and fun. For me it is dark, fuzzy, hard.
I don't know why it is hard. I try. Try to do what is so easy for everyone else, but nothing changes.
I'm a loser.
