One more day of drama
One more day of tears
One more day till I
forget
everything
One more day
when I'm officially free
One more day until
my
summer.
So be as bitchy as
you want
to me
because
once I step
off the bus
I wont remember anything
You aren't going to
effect
my life
and you
aren't going to
make me
cry
because
I am
a stronger
person
than you.

Me and my friend got in a fight the day before summer, and I wrote this about how she wasn't going to ruin my summer.

this is a beautiful poem and I really like how you can live this out. To me , if I write a poem, I have to be able to follow through with it and give the words true meaning. great job!
