First Day On Your Last Nerve

The books are off the shelf 
Teachers are heading to the nearest coffee machine 
Noises echo the elongated hallways 
Time has betrayed you 
Loud thuds of lockers slamming abruptly
Could it be?
School is currently back in session
The dreadful feeling of the first day 
Routine is once again included into your lexicon
As sure as the moon smiles, 
The sun shines onto your supply list 
The beginning of a tragic ending
