I woke up in the morning And ran a brush through my hair I sighed as I walked to school The rain more than I could bare I set my bag down in my locker Carried my books to my next class I rolled my eyes at the teacher I shook my head at the tests I passed The rain outside still falling And the commotion in the room Was presenting annoyance to me Along with my impending doom I was pushed around in the hallways By the crowds of people passing Pulled into their own world I hoped this would not be lasting As I pulled on my backpack The day near to an end I closed my eyes and inhaled deep Clearing my too full head I was relieved as I saw my house Standing on its hill I always rely on seeing it And there, it stands steadfast and still After putting up my stuff Watching TV for about an hour I decided to take a load off And spent thirty minutes sitting in the shower I lay down on my bed Pulled the covers to me tight I turned on my alarm And whispered my goodnights I lay awake in my bed My focus out the window pane The moon was high in the night sky The light from it shining on my face I turned myself around Under the cover of my sheets My ears tuned onto the silence And slowly I drifted off to sleep
