I Just Might

- Sripradha sankaran

8a

My eyes start to burn

My head aches hard

I’m a bit concerned

I sound like a bard

The work I’m given

Is hard to complete

My mind is driven

To achieve this feat

I start to wonder

If I’m making any sense

Do my words make you ponder?

Or create some offense?

I’m not supposed to be writing this I’m

just too busy now

But writing poems is something I miss

And to stop, I do not know how

My fingers pound on the keys

As I squint at my words

Who cares for the fresh breeze?

The trees, animals or birds?
