Back to school!

Blog & Poetry Jan 31, 2023


I wake up; I get ready, I go to school,
I study, I play, I frown, and I laugh,

Every day I do this without any realization,
A realization that this time will come to an end,

Not thinking that there would be a last day of school,
Not remembering that this time cannot be relived,

Not understanding why people say these are the best days of your life,
When it is their life that I really want to live,

I run, I eat, I sleep, and I dream,
I dream of the day when I leave school for good,

I wake up, I get ready, I go to work,
Only to realise that it will only be to work, work and work....

This is Brazil.
