Homework and writing too many papers
Pledging and late nights
Cramps and craving sweets
Oh the joy
The constant weight on my shoulders
Headaches galore
Fear of not doing good enough
Not being good enough
Breathing becomes shallow
Shaking increases
Tears close to falling
And I still haven’t finished the assignment
When the stress becomes too much
I cry
I scream
I eat a bucket of ice cream
When the stress becomes too much
I find friends
I watch movies
I laugh with them
When the stress becomes too much
I find a way back.
