the line “i was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere... fell behind all of my classmates and ended up here” is dedicated to everyone who was declared gifted in elementary school and now has bad grades with a sprinkle of crippling anxiety

This line depicts beautifully how when you're the quiet one who follow all the rules in elementary school teachers appreciate you and tell you're parents how great you are but they don't notice that you're actually far behind your classmates socially and you end up being an adult with social anxiety and it feels like turning around a sphere that doesn't end. Just stuck.

i think the fact that it’s a “sphere” also depicts that, that crippling anxiety never really goes away. no escape whatever direction you try to run. everything you “try” fails.

ykw no. i have come back cuz i realised a diff analysis. i think it means, when you try so hard to stay ahead of the curve, you end up never being satisfied with yourself that you go into an endless spiral of trying to push yourself to be better and feeling like you’re never enough. @taylorswift you are making me think about poetry more than my AP Lit teacher. pls help.

me to everyone since july 24, 2020 midnight.
