To see you
September 6, 2012
Shouldn't it be the other way around,
avoiding the packed hallways, the scramble of bodies
some of them unwashed, all of them sad, or anxious.
Shouldn't I not want to go to class?
listen to the lectures,
fail another test because I just don't know the answers.
The teachers hard, moving too fast to keep up this early in the morning.
But I do.
I want to sit through the lectures, the tests.
Waiting for lunch, for that one study hall,
That one class.
Because I know I get to see you,
Even if you don't see me.
