Happy Valley

I didn't show up to school the next day
I told my mom I was sick
But I think we're all sick with something

Everyone was grieving and I was at home in yoga pants watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians
For some reason their stupid dramatic lives helped me escape for a few hours and all I felt was fake

Fake

Fake

Fake

And that felt better than facing the halls of students trying not to cry

Because we're all sick with something
Someone, please find a cure

There are a bunch of suggested remedies out there, but we've yet to find one that's a cure-all
We need a cure-all
Because I don't think happy valley can handle so much sadness

They'll have to rename it

Someone, please find a cure

  3. So important. Who knew the Kardashians could save us.

    You're right about the sickness, about Happy Valley, about everything.
