School Day | Taliyah Edwards

I hate my last two classes
They feel like such a drag
But I really need them to graduate
So, I must suck it up and pass

Home please
I must go
I need my bed and my favorite show
To decompress and feel free
I want to sleep soundly
And have sweet dreams

And before I know it, my time will be up
I will need to do it all over again
which leaves me in pure disgust
But before I know it, it will all be over

Time will be well spent
Even though it feels like a waste
It will take me places, teach me things, and make me something Big

Poet's note: This poem is how I was feeling after school and having to deal with two classes that I didn't need because I had so many credits and I just wanted to express how I felt during that time. And it was written October 1, 2025.
