September is drawing closer

And I still can’t find closure

Summer seemed to go so fast

The time for freedom and relaxation is past


Waking up is hard to do when you go to bed at 2

I can’t fall asleep til late so I wait

Maybe I over exaggerate

It’s more like 11

When I find myself in sleep, in heaven

Mind whirring, worries forming

The nervous feeling won’t dissipate

Those are future me’s problems

I check the clock once, then twice

My thoughts are my vice

I slow my breathing, in and out

Until my eyes grow heavy 

My head feels light

Then I crash


Wake up just to relive the same day

Bones cracking, eyes blurry

This is how school will mess me up until May
