September: "Lovely Mess"

Just when I thought everything was going great,

There was a change in fate.

Everyone says senior year is the best,

But for me it was far from the rest.

The first week filled me up with stress,

Bombarding me with a self test.

Can I handle this?

Life threw me a curve ball

To see if I can recover from the fall.

Sure enough I made it through

The drama I believed would never come true.

The lies that stood in the way

Distracted me from my extremely busy days.

My main concern was trying to fix things

Like there was some magical tool.

But I was just a fool.

I soon learned what was really important.

Although I was hesitant

I let it go, ignored the negative,

And went with the flow.

Can I handle this?

Is that even a question?

Did I mention..?

I made it through

Without a clue.

Senior year is supposed to be the best.

So now I juggle one less mess, you.
