Don’t Look Down

Once there was a journal
he opened it
and wrote about his day
Because he couldn't contain it.
He titled his entry "A New Beginning"
Because that's what it was.
His mother was proud of his grades
And he went out with his best friend every weekend
Who said that she was excited for him.
The school was too crowded with people
But he made new friends.
And the guy he just met made him feel different
And told him he knew why.
He wrote about how great he felt.
He wrote about it all
then closed the book
To hide from the world
And keep his life to himself.
So he hid it in his bedroom
