Her Happy Place

She sits in the back of the class,
hidden in the shadows,
waiting for the clock to hit three
and the school bell to ring.
She closes her eyes,
and waits for a moment.
She thinks of her happy place,
but can't
because
how can you be in a happy place
when you're really in hell.
She wants to go home,
forget about the world.
She wants to go to her happy place,
but is forsaken to go.
The clock strikes three,
the school bell rings.
She opens her eyes,
and rushes out the door.
She wants to go to her happy place,
but deep inside,
she knows she's in hell.
