Today

Maybe it's that 

I don't have enough energy left

to evaluate my day.

But it doesn't seem that bad.

I failed a test again...

it'll be my third.

But I know the curve

will carry me.

My friend got a job

that I really wanted

to be able to have too,

but if only one of us

could've gotten it,

I'd have rather it been his.

My life isn't sorted out yet

I think I understand it less today

than I have in the past week.

But today, I can see what's present

over all the absences.

I'm glad to be intelligent

I'm looking forward to Sunday

-excited for dressing up and 

dancing.

I'm happy today.

You can't buy that.

I ate lunch and dinner 

with awesome friends

laughed a decent amount

and didn't cry 

about failing my test.

Everything is alright.

I'm gonna sleep well

tonight.
