High school
is memorizing facts
that you’ll forget in two days
for a test on information
that probably will not affect
your job in ten years.
It’s sobbing and screaming
because you’re just too stressed.
It’s finding out who you are
within the school guidelines
and social norms.
It’s doing 28 hours of work
and activities in only 24 hours.
It's drinking coffee
everyday
because there just isn't enough
time for eight hours of sleep.
It’s learning how to factor
when you could be learning
how to do taxes.
It’s breaking your back
with a backpack full of
textbooks.
It’s going to school
and sitting there for
eight hours only to go
back home and do
three more hours of work.
It’s crying in the hallway
during finals week.
Actually,
it's crying over everything
because
HORMONES
Actually,
it's crying over everything
because
HORMONES
It’s taking what is claimed
to be the best three years
of your life and turning it into
a living hell.
High school
is leaving you clueless
when asked a non-academic question
because there is no
study guide
for life.
