August is where I walked the hall Happiness, fear, and all Thinking of a perfect life I now know that’s a lie September broke my dreams Schools not easy, it seems But I have one friend at home On the phone Don’t I? October, tears on the floor While getting candy door to door Fun still Still alone Without my friend from the phone November, grades falling down And sadness all around While thanks lifts up from the ground And I sing a song I found December, New Goals Time to let go of old Problems I got my wish I made a list But will my deepest hope come true? Is this a hope even? January, happy days Every problem falls away Happiness at school Not Home Not from my friend on the phone February, stays the same Projects aprotching by the day Maybe everything will be okay Maybe I will get an A March, Problem still few Only the ones from the start of school Is this friendship real? Is that what I feel? April, TCAP coming Time to keep studying Tests, Tests, Tests Who cares if I'm the best May, who knows? Hopefully spring flowers grow With my birthday and summer It might be the best May ever! First year, walking the halls, Might be the worst year of all But it ended out okay I got through it day by day And now, I’m ready for fun through May Through June and July First year I’ll miss you But I’m happy to leave you to
