Hoping for sleet and freezing rain,

While the ringing in my ears,

Reminds me of the throbbing pain,

The pounding in my head, my jaw,

Behind my eyes, oh, the migraine..

I am aware, when i look

At the pile of papers

Resting on my book

Of eight hours of homework

I have an hours worth done,

And look at all the time that took...

Ive got so much left to do

And the vivarin is about to wear off

When your life is a balance

Of caffeine and valium the world is

Fuzzy and soft

Mix it up a little with some random

Intermittent poetry to pass the hours

Where my shoelace isnt the only thing undone

My life and homework accompany the shoelace

Speaking of shoes... i thought of running away

Or killing myself, after today,

To avoid the pain when my grades arrive,

In a tightly sealed envelope before my mothers eyes

Addressed to the parents, of the student prescribed

My valiums wearing off, i'll have to face the words

With a half sober mind. then escape, to a world of dizziness

Where all i can do is pray

For sleet and freezing rain

To delay

School

Life

For just one more day
