Every morning I look into the mirror And say what I want to be Hoping today will make it clearer Of what it’s all about to me. Every morning I walk to school And think of what to say Of all things that won’t make me a fool And why it’s all about this way. Every morning I go to class And be an original that never fades And hope that I will one day pass And why it’s all about the grades. Everyday I hear some voices That make me sound insane And even though I make bad choices It’s all about the pain. Everyday I walk a long walk home And hear my parents fight And trap myself in a hateful dome And why it’s all about my fright. Every night I go to bed And wonder if this will last To keep all these influences in my head And if it’s all about the past. Every night I talk to my friend Who makes me feel okay Who likes me just the way I am, no trend And if it’s all about today. Every night I think about my best friend Who changes all my doubt With him around the pain will end And that’s what it’s all about.
Reason for writing:
I went through a really hard time because I had to go through my parent's seperation. Everday I would get an instant message from him and we would talk. In high school, people can say you have a good rep or a bad rep. I am the one with the bad rep. Even though I have made tons of bad choices, when it all comes down to it, it made me view the world as a different place. It was hard for people to understand because they all judged me except my best friend who liked me for the persom I am now, the person I was.
