What do you do...when you've burned your heart?

So the teacher looks you right in the face, yeah?

She keeps on looking while you're telling her things she want to hear...

She squirms a little, but nothing else. You keep talking.

She Throws A Punch Right At Your Nose.

What would you do.?
What can you do, without ruining the day for everybody else?
That people around you will not be affected by your future actions.

You smile at the teacher.
"Oh well, thank you ma'am. "
and hold in as tight as possible your lacrimal sac from bursting.
The fire that seem to be getting hotter by the minute, no, second.
You look at her again.
And you say your thank you.
And you smile.

You think back all the times that you have NOT even touched your bed.
The chips you had to eat in place of proper fried rice.
The sensation of knocking your head on the table, result of fatigue.
You've probably forgotten what does the pillow smell like.
Looking at the dejected blanket which has fallen on the floor.

You smile and you say your thank you.

You do not cry.
You go home and you tell your mummy about it.
And go for a walk, won't you?
Subzero temperature is good for raging fire I last heard.
Get some sleep too, while you're at it.

You politely nod your head.
"Thank You, Ma'am"
