School and Covid 1-7

COVID Everything I built crumbles. My job goes under My friends disband Some of them drop off the face of the earth Others dealing with trauma for the first time Nobody talks to me now but the boy I move in with the boy Our relationship is strong My parents don't like him I like him They don't like me living with the boy Despite the benefits to finances They cant decide how much support to give me And give me anxiety instead of stability The boy graduates I get one more year HE and I no longer talk at Holiday I think HE only comes for the food anyways I finish school While the school is still a husk I didn't gain anything But a flimsy piece of paper Looking back Nobody in the school believed in me Or even thought of me On a regular basis That kinda hurts I can’t even tell If I failed the social circles Or if they failed me Covid Complicated matters
