Jinxed

This day for me started out a little jinxed The one person that I wanted to see I never got to meet Than it's parent teachers nite My palms are sweating Cause my mom decides to come My mood is filled with anticipation I want to walk into a room and just have him sitting there Alone But when i'm looking he never appears and i'm disappointed My only option for credit recovery Is to dance a hip hop dance and within myself find self discovery But I can't identify my heart in this matter So I try to defy Against all kinds of helping hands and guidance I don't know how many times their going to say If you screw this up your throwing your life away I pretty much know this So hearing it over and over again Just made me sink lower So now this is the last straw With a mad look on my face I walk out the door I haven't see my guy, My mom won't pick up (Never good) and my life seems messed up So I left with my friends and caught the bus Got home too early Feeling beat up Ironically My mom's in bed she didn't even go to the meeting I wake up the next morning and open the paper A shooting had occurred where I worked Just after I left I would've have been there if my day hadn't been so jinxed Thanks faith for saving me I really appreciated your Generosity
