High School Sucks

Listening

to cheery music.

Newsboys pounded into

my ears.

 

Looking at scholarships

looking at my friends.

When did life for then become

perfect?

 

I think I’m gonna

shoot my self. Haha

Laugh. Cause I ain’t gonna

die, just be reincarnated.

 

I know behind me

there is a line freshman

waiting for the slatter .

 

Too many night

spent studying.

SAT

ACT

PSAT

Bit me.

 

High school shucks.

 

How do we even know

that today’s actions forecast

tomorrow’s embrace?

 

My first kiss,

My first shot of vodka,

My first wet dream.

 

Too many pretty faces

and lustful youth

to sleep.

I agree with Misanthea about this being a very relatable piece of people who are currently in or have already graduated high school. It's very rare to hear people actually say that they like high school, and I am no different. Actually, I can hardly wait for graduation even though I don't really have a plan for my future.

In regards to the part about reincarnation, I think it could mean that high school changes you. A lot of people say very lightly that high school 'kills' them, mostly in a joking manor, but in reality it does kill a part of you. Most people don't even realise it—if you were homeschooled or didn't have to partake in high school, you would be very different character-wise as well as academically.

In other words, instead of school actually killing you physically, it changes you. When you first go into high school and when you leave it via graduation or drop-out, you are a very different person. It could be described as a "reincarnation" of your soul.

Of course, this is just how I see it. Like all writing, it isn't necessarily correct and there are probably multiple ways for it to be seen. Either way, I really like this piece and I feel that just about everyone can relate. Nicely written, easy to follow... good job. =]

lol, i like this one, because high school does suck. immensely. the best day of the first 18 years of life is when you finally get the hell out of high school.

Heh, pretty late to return the favor, but here I am nonetheless.

Well, I feel really identified with this piece of writing. As a matter of fact, I still do, since high school is not the last place where a person faces this kind of... Adversities.

I might have a little problem understanding what this "reincarnated" line might mean, as I doubt it has a religious meaning. Either way, very good job. And thanks for reviewing me of course.

Definetly true.
Explains High School to its' very core.
Nice job on this!
:D

This is freaking awesome. Amazing. And so freaking true. High school definitely sucks, and every line in this is true. You look at your friends, their lives may seem so perfect, you look at yourself and you're like, what happened to me? Why does my life suck? And then you'll be reincarnated..but will it be better? Worse?

So many different thoughts and question poured into one poem that basically says: life f*****g sucks. I LOVE this; it speaks so many truths.
