The Beating
by Danny Sung
July 6, 2010
—
I go to school
For praise and fame,
To study hard,
So I might forget,
The beating never stops.
—
I go to work
To run and hide.
Work till I drop,
So I might not feel,
The beating never stops.
—
I go out
For fun and games,
Anywhere but here,
So it might lose me,
The beating never stops.
—
I go home
Alone.
It reminds me,
The beating never stops…
The beating of my heart.
