Please help me SLAM.

Sometimes I wish

Sometimes I wish, wish

It would just stop

Stop

STOP

This and that and this

Would STOP

SLAM to a stop.

Boom, Bang, SLAM, Stop.

Halt, grind, SLAM, Stop.

The pain, the laughter.

The joy, the games.

The shame, the tears.

The images and the words.

The responsibilities, the plans.

SLAM, SLAM to a stop.

I want to go back.

Go Back.

Back.

White Walls.

White Shoes.

Brown Hair.

Brown Eyes.

A Pencil.

A Book.

Stop SLAMMING into me.

Stop SLAMMING into you.

Please help me stop.

White walls.

Please help me slam.

**Like everyone else, there's supposed to be stanzas!

this one's really musical, Brenna, I could almost hear it sung!
