First Day Blues

Written in 2001 when I started my 2nd term at university.

First Day Blues:

Help! I can't sleep a wink!
I can't even stop to think
What tomorrow will bring.
Sometimes though we break the mold
Of life, going along at our own pace -
Suddenly we're joining the human race.

Rush rush rush - we never stop,
I only wish I could flop
Like an old rag doll with a smile,
Oh it would seem so worthwhile!
I can't wait till the end of the day -
But I'll face tomorrow come what may.

I can't wait to get into my bed
And pull the covers over my head.
Pretty soon I'll be in a deep sleep,
If anyone dares wake me I'll weep!
Ah well, maybe I'll stay in -
No, I'll go out with a grin!
Not!
