Loss

On the bus, all so sweaty, 
Fillled with hate, and meaningless pity.
Head down, you know you lost,
A single game you feel you tossed.
The whole ride home, all so quiet,
All in thought of the early riot.
Get back home and hit the shower,
Take so long it felt an hour.
Hold your head high, you did your best, 
Now to bed for a joyful rest.

I JUST WANT TO KNOW......if you write poems, when you are at the peak of your emotions or anytime?......coz, you seem like a intense writer.
