The Change in Me

Mon, 01/02/2017 - 16:16 -- CApoet

What was different in me

From a year ago to now;

What more could I see

From a year ago to now?

 

Planning for what to do

Is what changed;

Planning to use the education I knew

Is what changed.

 

I understood the school subjects

A year ago;

I understood each of the projects

A year ago.

 

It was how to use it

That I was not so sure about;

It was a lot, I admit,

That I was not so sure about.

 

As time went on,

I was learning;

As time was gone,

I was learning.

 

I was very prepared for my last year

In High School;

I did not have any fear

In High School.

 

Yet, I was not prepared for the reality

With Senioritis;

The desire to be carefree

With Senioritis.

 

The past I forgot about

Within a year;

The present was my black out

Within a year.

 

All I thought was the future

That year;

What to do was my concern, for sure

That year.

 

Now, I'm patiently waiting

Without Senioritis;

Now, it's not frustrating

Without Senioritis.

 

One day at a time

I say;

One step in the climb

I say.

 

As planning increased,;

So my Senioritis deceased;

As my Senioitis decreased,

So my patience increased.
