The next minute… gone
What went wrong?

https://www.theodysseyonline.com/tired-college-student I didn’t know I missed you. I didn’t know I cared. I didn’t know I loved you, Until you weren’t there.

My mind evaporates into The fog When I learn too much in one day. I go from four padding paws, Trying to touch every bit of knowledge I can, To a few worn-out feet. My ears droop, full to the brim of information. My nose tips down as I realize A deadline Is just another word For disappointment. Only the bait, Encouraging me to reach out and touch it before  The day gets a chance to say, "That's all I have time for, Do not try to add hours on Or you could be up until tomorrow Just trying," I am the dog who wakes up, Sees the world from the window, Collec
