School

I walked up the steps

on my own...

I couldnt have known

what I was in for

I sat down

in the little orange chair

why was I there?

what were they trying to do?

now look how far I've gone

what I achieved

back then I didnt believe

my parents when they said it would be alright

now its much harder

from here where do I go?

I went from crayons and playdough

to pencils and books

now its almost over

going to be a senior

what a war

I have faught to make it this far

what will I do next?

It doesnt make sense

what of the days reciting the pledge

of allegience?

I'm grown up now

I'm going to graduate

sometimes I wonder if I am to late

to change things I regret

I can breathe relief

that its almost done

I had some fun

through these years
