Hairtie

Ajax (he/xe)

A hair tie on my wrist,

Normal, right?

To most people,

It’s an item with little to no significance

In their day-to-day life.

For me, 

The hair tie is an outlet

A way to harm

Without looking obvious

When I slip up in class,

Snap.

When I get a bad grade,

Snap again.

When I say something someone doesn’t like,

Snap!

No one questions it,

I’ve close to perfected

This façade of mine

It’s just another hair tie.

An ordinary item

That everyone owns

    OMG. This resonated a little too close to home.

      I'm glad it was relatable :>
