I Wish
I wish I corrected my mistakes
I wish I had I could eat tacos
I wish I had magic powers to bring life to my fishes
I wish I had A lot of money
I wish I had got my permit
I wish I could go become a small child again.
I wish I had a magic wand
to make all my wishes
come true.
The Final Week of a 9 Week
Dizziness radiates all over my head
Pain flows like waves through my back
I get ready in a snap with my back pack
My parents burst into my room like hyper NFL scouts
I go to school
Tik Tok Tik Tok
The clock talks exasperatedly
Reminding me time is running out
School ends with a boom like bell sound
I submit the assignments in a moment of rush
I go to tutorials with a sentiment of listlessness
Teachers dominate my mind with grades and tests.
I came home half dead
Parents dominate my life over again
Hours pass by
Minutes pass by
Grades do not change
Emails are not replied by teachers
I find my way to a dark world
I sleep, trapped in that dark world for the rest of the week.
Ballad
I am silent like a rock
The room filled with darkness
I wait , wait , wait for the door to open
Every minute mutates my life
I think about my future
On the other side of the door is my future
But for now, I am in the dark
I see
I see light
Light enters the room though the door
Or is this my imagination?
I can feel the warmth
This is happening
The door opens like a computer turning on
The lawyer walks in
Creating suspense inside me
We have won!
The trial has as ended
I have achieved success
I am free like a bird flying in the sky
