This poem is about my college life...

A dream discontinued through the sound of my alarm,
Then a very quick shower -before I munch a breakfast barm,
Grab onto college books, food and drink and all,
Then it's off to catch the bus if I make it to the bus at all.

On arrival at the stop, we stand in our big crowd,
Then the fatal words "Bus is here" is shouted very loud,
We get on the bus, kick up a fuss then sprawl on the seats,
"Ay you've got my work" -cry the students who hate cheats.

We get into college and sit in the class,
Nine o clock comes and students arrive in mass,
I sit and listen to what went on at the weekend,
Then I turn around and repeat this to a friend.

The comes the lecture -both boring and hard,
We just peer through the window and see who's on the yard,
Early morning break signals gossip -old and new,
It mainly features news about who is dating who.

Then it's down to the hard graft, toil and work,
I'm a hard worker but my friend is a jerk,
Type a final sentence before we break off for lunch,
Then it's down to the pub for a beer and a munch.

After lunch our teacher grades our stuff,
Come on Mr teacher, a grade C will be enough,
The return of the papers spells a very sad hour,
For my peers didn't make the grades and it's all turned sour.

But this is college life, and we love it through and through,
We don't want to leave because we won't know what to do,
Some will never leave, I know I'll miss the fun,
Because at the end of college days, life's only just begun!

This is such a GREAT poem!!! Especially the last line about not knowing what to do..alot of truth in it, and your rhyming made it even more enjoyable to read..KEEP POSTING  

"Controlling my feelings for too long....
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold...
And pushing us into self-destruction...."
