The next miserable day

by Heimerschmidt   Apr 5, 2008


I wake up each and every morning
To begin another tedious day in school
I cleanse my teeth, wash my face, and comb my hair
Using many things as my tools

A long while after,
I have breakfast in cold silence
My annoying sister tries to talk to me
While I stare at my food in defiance

The bus is coming,
A chariot to my despair
Until I remember finally
That you are over there

My face brightens in happiness
At the memory of your presence
At the beauty you possess
And at your benevolence

I gaze at you down the hall
Coming from your last class
Your friends who you eagerly call
Run to you, sharing your laughs

Nearer you walk to me
As I try to regain my composure
An impartial glance you guarantee
But nothing special, do you ensure

I sadly stare at the ground you trod on
Until reality hits me again
I walk slowly, with my hope gone
I knew I should have said something back then

Last period, she is so sweet to me
But we are limited as barely friends
I wish our relationship was not so slow, you see
Yet I know this foolish love I have will eventually have to end

I could never share the same dream with her
She is like a queen and I a meager page
Not to mention, she is close to this one guy
Whose name fills me with spiteful rage

The bell rings, everybody heads out
She walks to her house like I do
Even taking the same route
My chance with her is almost through

Most of the time she walks with companions
While I trod alone without anyone to escort
On rare occasions she walks with me
Gosh, why am I always the last resort?

I am at home and it is time for bed
Tomorrow will be better, to myself I always say
I close my eyes and rest my head
Until the next miserable day…
