The First Day of School

I held her hand tight

She looked at me with a smile 

Said it’ll be okay

I let go and walked 2 steps

I turned around 

And there she vanished

She left me alone

So I was scared

After that, I ran away

I ran away to the bathroom

I cried

I was scared, I was furious

I wondered to myself

Why would she leave me

That day I got bullied

That day I got an A

That day I got talked about 

That day I fell

But she was nowhere to be found

She once told me 

When I fall she’ll be there to catch me

When I cry she’ll be there to help me

When I am alone she’ll be there to comfort me

So I thought to myself was all of that a lie

So again

That day I got bullied

That day I got an A

That day I got talked about

That day I fell 

That day she was there finally there

She felt something wasn’t right with her baby

She was right 

That day she caught me

That day she rescued me

That day she was my hero

That day was the first day of school
