Disneyland

These last few weeks of school

All I can think of is Disneyland.

Disneyland: the happiest place on earth.

One day I think I might run away.

I think I will go to Disneyland

So that day when I am not in class

That's the day I have disappeared to there

My happy place

Where there are no cares in the world

The worst thing is waiting in line.

When the hardest part of the day is leaving.

If only school was like Disneyland

Shouldn't these last few weeks of high school be enjoyable?

Memorable?

Unforgettable?

I think yes.

No more tests.

No more late nights of procrastination

Procrastination is such a bad thing.

The problem is the intentions are normally good

I don't wait to do my homework because I want to.

I just always find something more interesting to spend my time on

So here I sit staring at the teacher

As they try to explain some new confusing concept

And all I can think about is Disneyland

I think about the carefreeness of childhood

I think of the fact that that part of my life is coming to an end

Soon I will enter into adulthood

Bills to be paid

Jobs to be made

And life to be lived

When asked where do you want to be in five years

The answer is no longer certain

No longer well I will be in high school

I might be at a different college

The answer is unknown,

My future is whatever I choose to make it

But what do I want?

The teacher is explaining the new concept,

My mind is whirling and I still don’t get it

And I don’t know how my life will work out

Disneyland is only a day away

And the rest of my life is starting right now.
