Sleeping again....

by Steven   May 5, 2008


I sit far away from him during class
toward the back wall lies a boy who falls asleep
everyday during class he would fall sleep
every time i would look back and watch him sleep

his head always down
with such a peaceful dream
his hair covers his eyes and face
so it doesn't allow other's like me to see
i want to see what he looks like
and his life long dreams

another day came
but this time his seat was empty
I looked behind to see if he changed seat
nobody was their but a couple of geeks
did he over sleep?
or was he lost in his dream?

it was lunch time
and it's time to eat
i sat with my friends quietly
they were talking about how guys is so good looking
i was thinking about why he didn't come to school to sleep
was he sick today?
or forget to awake today?

the day went by so quickly
i started yawning by the end of school
classes were really starting to get boring
so... i... slowly.... fell... asleep.....

someone was taping me
my eyes were shut tight
someone started poking me
my eyes were starting to break free
someone was patting me
my eyes were finally open

i looked up to see who was bothering me
to find a boy smiling right at me
class was over, and the boy stayed to keep me awake
his smile was so deadly
his hair style is so funking
he asked me why did i fell asleep
i just told him i was tired from all this learning

he started laughing
and explains to me how he always falls asleep
when ever he comes to school really early
at that moment it took me a few seconds to notice
the boy that was talking to me was the boy that falls asleep

my face felt a little bit warm
for some random reason
the boy smiled at me and asked if he could walk me home
i didn't say a thing, but just nodded my head
so we got our bags and left the building

as we were walking alone
he didn't really say much to me
i guess he thought i must be tired after all that sleep
i would look at the side of his face
and slowly remember what he looked like mentally
so it gives me a chance to remember who the boy is

when we finally got to my house
he smiled at me and waved good-bye
i thanked him for the company and waved good-bye
even when he walked away
his back of his head would seem like a memory to me

the morning came by so quickly again
he was fast asleep again
and i continue the day watching him sleep again
and wonder what might he be dreaming about again?
