I'm about to leave for school
today is my sophmore year
I'm glad I made it this far
let's all give a cheer

I start to leave my home
But suddenly my foot bends
the ground keeps coming closer
But I can't put out my hands

I fall and hurt myself
tears come out as streams
i put a bandage on, no big deal
but nothing is as it seems

I take the bus to school,
hoping i wont be late
but suddenly my eyes start to close
I'll fall asleep at this rate

My eyes start to open
my vision starts to clear
i've missed my stop
i can't be late this year!

I wait 'til the next stop,
grab my bag and run
I won't make it in time!
this will not be fun

I start to cross the bridge
the school is just around
when i trip again
and knock a line of bikes down

Tears form again,
My knee is torn and bad
A boy who owned one of the bikes
looks at me skeptical and mad

I stagger up and apologize
the boy starts to leave, i start to run
he turns around solemly
he comes over and says "Get on"

I look at him funny
until i agree
he starts to peddle
Why would he help me?

It's a very nice poem and I'll see if I can find the t.v. series so i can watch it. I loved it.
