Classroom Seclusion
Lancelot {Bilal} © 2000

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking prof talks nonsense
'Cuz I ain't payin' attention

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking 'bout my good friend
Who just died of cancer

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking of past 12 long hours
when he left this earth

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking of a mourning family
Who saw their kid agonize

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking I won't see him
When I go home in summer

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking how he bid goodbye
When I left for far

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking he wished being a doc
Always scored high in tests

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking 'bout last Ramadan
We danced our nights off

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking our Eid get together
All friends & family around

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking he won't be 22
It must've been to long for'im

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking to value everybody
You never know who'd leave next

Sitting in my classroom
Thinking he won't've to wait
For cure to be discovered

Sitting in my classroom
I just prayed for his
Soul to rest in peace

Sitting in my classroom
I had tears in my eyes
Not aware of the surroundings!

Yeah I know what you mean..I've drifted into the melancholy lots of times myself and I know it was in the classroom sometimes ...just drifting away with those all encompassing thoughts controlling the mind... very nicely expressed.....ethome

Thanx a lot Ethome, for commenting. it's never easy to concentrate if your mind is full even if you're watching a game.
