I wanna
Homework and homework and homework,
 buried me in the ocean of due dates.
 Grades dropped, somehow,
 Which I don't know where I made my mistake.
 ---I don't even care.
 I don't wanna care.
 
 I wanna yell, and
 yell my heart out.
 Pushing air out of my lungs,
 I might leave alone the air dried me--
 the pure, pure ego.
 I wanna yell, until--
 Never mind, erase the "until"
 I don't wanna stop.
 
 I wanna hop on the next flight to China,
 And for the whole 14 hours, I will do nothing,
 literally nothing.
 No eating, no sleeping, no drinking.
 I will try to leave myself a living fossil,
 in the infinite inhales and exhales.
 
 I wanna run on the streets.
 If it's sunny, great.
 If it's raining, who cares?
 I wanna run no matter what, 
 until my last breath escaped from,
 my lungs with the last trace of moisture.
 Then I will fall and,
 take a forever rest.
 
 I wanna go to a forest, alone.
 I wanna drink a liter of coffee and never sleep.
 I wanna sing until the neighbor complains.
 I wanna hit drums with all my strength in the middle of the night.
 
 But you know I'm just saying, right?
 I truly, truly just wanna call my mom and tell her:
 I'm tired.
 I wanna go home.
