Thoughts of a Stressed-Out College Student
12/5/98

How much longer can I handle this stress? 
Sometimes I feel like just screaming, 
just standing up in the middle of class and screaming, 
screaming while I serve food at work. 
I wonder what people would do. 
At least it might do something,
At least then something might change. 

Sometimes I just cry,
Without a reason. 
I feel like crying all the time.
I find that I don't even care what happens.
I walk across the street without even looking.
Yesterday I almost got hit.
I don't want to die, 
At least I don't think so.
Probably not.
I don't think that would accomplish anything,
Except to make people sad,
And I don't want that.

People think I have a good life.
And I guess I do.
Got a boyfriend,
Good grades,
And lots of friends.
But I wonder if they all understand how I feel.
I don't think so.
Sometimes I don't even understand.
