In My Shoes

A description of my day in a poem.

These hallways arent big enough
  The drink machine at the library; forget it
     It'll eat your money
Big classrooms with no windows
  Imagine what's outside, girl
     You wont see it for long
Gossip bouncing from mouth to mouth
  Get used to it
     It'll never go away
You see him in the hallway
   You frown 
      It's only for a minute
That kid in Spanish
  He wont quit staring at you
     Roll your eyes, he doesn't have a chance
Speed through your classwork
  Your teachers are impressed
     You smile and go back to your silent domain
Lunch: You're judged by whats on your tray
  Eat what you want, don't pay attention
     Most of them puke it up anyway (oops)
Teachers Pet
  Always at her desk, laughing and talking
     You relate to that one (very rare)
Running your eyes over the hall quickly
   A scanner on the barcode
     Looking for him when he grabs your hand
Reading, writing, laughing with friends
  He is beside you
     That makes you smile more (you're in your happy place)
Walking through the hallways
  Last time of the day
     He touches his lips to yours (you fly away)
You hop the stones to get to your car
  Watch him walk to his bus
     You cant wait for tomorrow

And you've lived one day in My Shoes
