Five Days Poem by Nia Schexnider

It has been five days, since two hours ago,
Why time passes this way, today, I really don't know.
*
I have seen and felt and heard and thought,
But understanding, those things, I have not,
I seem to no longer be able to comprehend,
When will this fog lift? and confusion end?
*
It has been two weeks since we first spoke,
Not a single puff, or a single toke,
I have quit that to forget my time,
Embracing you and making you mine.
*
But my world is still, swirling,
I feel like I'm twirling,
Trying to catch a view,
of all these things that are new.
*
Then, there is school,
And momma didn't raise no fool,
I've been doing my best to keep up,
But there is too much in my cup.
*
It' has been five days, since two hours ago,
And although time moving this way, today,
Is exhausting, I'm kinda glad time is going slow.
