A teenager's thoughts on Waking up. (Free verse) by Jarah
I finally fall asleep,
When I hear the familiar dinging of a bell,
It makes me want to yell,
It feels like I've just drifted off,
And suddenly its through,
Only I know how it feels, but what can I do?
Maybe I'll just roll over and ignore it,
And tell mom I missed the bus,
Maybe I could fake a cough,
No, that will cause too big of a fuss,
What can I do, what should I do?
What choices should I make?
Should I get up and go to school?
Or should I stay at home and fake?
I know I'll get into trouble,
If I go with #2, but like I've said before,
What can I do? After too much thinking,
The sleep will wear away,
Maybe tomorrow I'll get that sleep,
Maybe tomorrow I'll stay.
