J.O.E. (Jumble of Emotions)

I need control, I need will power,
I do too much homework,
Not enough social hour,
Life is funny,
How it changes on you,
Things are not like they used to be,
When I get back,
Who knows what they'll expect,
I live in a nest called "my room",
I only go out for food, drink, and release,
I don't ponder about the present,
I just do it to get through it,
Sometimes I feel like not trying,
I don't see the point of crying,
How I see my end parallels to my beginning,
I breathe in air,
Breathe out stress,
Junior year hard, no rest, no zest,
I'm a living zombie, no boyfriend, no life,
The people I like are oblivious to me,
What is wrong with me?
Do I have to walk around naked?
Why I am here?
If only I didn't feel lonely,
Sighing,
My mind hurts,
I don't know how to change,
But I don't want things to stay the same,
Life is a lame game
