One day I sat, there all alone
Wondering why the world’s so cruel?
I gazed up at the sky so late at night
Into the dark space glittering with light
Those are the stars I so long to see
And the moon to the left looking at me
I thought I saw, and heard it say:
Why are you looking so down, my lady?
I began to answer, but soon I backed out
The reason was, I myself had no answer to that.
But then it hit me, like a knock on the head
I was afraid of the future, and what it beholds
That I soon would have to leave my beloved home
Out to a world that has no mercy
I soon will discover and shall have to accompany.
But that’s nothing compared to the lonely nights
Being in a stuffy room with no family or friends
Only the smelly odor of the books that I shall have to study
And my good-for-nothing roommate who’s not among the living
But look on the bright side, I’ll be back
With the highest degree that they’ll ever see
And then I shall earn everyone’s respect
And live my life with great aspects
It isn’t all that bad, I soon had to say
The world is a tough place
But I sure am tougher!
I thanked the moon for returning me to my senses
And I rushed back in before I had a cold
“Aaaaaatchooo!” oops it was too late!
