Happy Birthday

Everyone is staring...

Happy Birthday sung

You sit and you smile tooth wide

And hold back the tears

They want to be nice

You tell yourself but you are

as shy as a cat.

Teacher by day, fantasy worldbuilder by night. I write about books, burnout, and the strange comfort of morally questionable characters. If I’m not plotting a novel, I’m probably drinking iced coffee and pretending it’s a coping strategy.
