I, Me

There are so many things

I need to do

And yet I Pontificate

In the thoughts of doing a lot

I Prevaricate

I got to go to school

I've got to learn

I've got to take exams

I have 24 hours in a day

But that's a true world around

Where days are measured in grades

Marks and ranks

So much to do

And little time to think

With little concession

To the reel me

Who am I is the question

And like a beggar I seek answers

Am I a daughter?

A sister and friend, a name?

Or at the most

I feel I am the unholy Ghost

I float around each day

Waiting for hours to pass

In the meantime

I study

I go to the class

The school and

learn for the marks

And in the night

I think of me

A few moments

Before I sleep

Never enough to be different

Never enough to be ME
