The morning sun pierced through the thin curtains of my room, highlighting the scattered textbooks I never opened. Another day, another pointless journey to a college that barely taught me anything. I had once believed education would be my ticket out of this life, but now it felt like just another broken promise.
I dragged myself out of bed and threw on the same hoodie I wore every other day. No one cared how I looked, and honestly, neither did I. My stomach grumbled, but there was nothing to eat—just an empty fridge that mocked me every time I opened it.
The walk to college was uneventful, just like the classes. Professors droned on about concepts that felt more disconnected from reality than my bank account. I sat in the back, staring at the peeling paint on the walls, wondering how I got here.
During breaks, I’d sit alone, scrolling through social media. My classmates laughed in groups, their conversations filled with weekend plans and trendy clothes. They didn’t see me, and I didn’t want them to. Their world felt like a different planet, one I couldn’t afford to visit.
By the time I got back to my room, the day had drained me, even though I hadn’t done anything productive. I stared at the ceiling, my mind racing with questions I couldn’t answer. Why did I keep going to college if it wasn’t helping? Why didn’t I have the guts to drop out and figure things out on my own?
The only thing I could count on was the suffocating cycle of existing without really living. Nights were the hardest. The silence pressed down on me, and the darkness seemed to stretch forever. I wanted more—more than this room, more than this life—but I didn’t know how to get it.
Tomorrow would be the same.
