Lazy, procrastinating, worthless boy Who knew he’d topped his classes before? High school came and robbed his joy As his grades sank to the ocean floor He found solace in computer games While he kept his books tucked away ‘The lessons are hard, that’s all,’ he claims As Mom and Dad think he’s gone astray Senior year was his wake-up call To abandon the games and take up his books This was his final chance, after all And the deciding factor of how his future looks

The Hopeless Case
Lazy, procrastinating, worthless boy Who knew he’d topped his classes before? High school came and robbed his joy As his grades sank to the ocean floor He found solace in computer games While he kept his books tucked away ‘The lessons are hard, that’s all,’ he claims As Mom and Dad think he’s gone astray Senior year was his wake-up call To abandon the games and take up his books This was his final chance, after all And the deciding factor of how his future looks
So I became a member of our school paper and this is one of my submissions! I hope you like it.
