Crackle
Crackle
That is the sound of my heart breaking
Splat
That is what my tear does as it hits the floor
Stomp
That is the sound my foot makes as it stomps the ground
To keep me from kicking your butt
Fists clenched at my side
To keep me from punching a hole into your head
Biting my tongue
To keep me from embarrassing you with an insult
Holding my breath
To keep the eruption of anger from exploding out me
You glare at those surrounding you
To make sure no one challenges you
You look
To make sure no teachers are around
You walk away
To avoid getting your butt kicked, avoid embarrassment
Coward
I open my mouth
This volcano has erupted
The lava killing your fire as it oozes out
You blush
At the sound of those words
I just killed your power
I smile
You know that you got lucky
Real lucky that I didn't tear you apart after messing with me
