I'm Afraid of the First Day of School

Bright, sharpened pencils,

Desks all aligned in a row,

It's the first day of high school

AND I don't want to go.

Very different teachers, 

with outlandish surnames,

I WANT my last year's teachers

Things will NEVER be the same! 

I don't remember the things I learned,

or the grades I made.

The TRUTH is, 

If you really must know, 

I'm REALLY afraid.
