May

Even though many my days are numbered;
     the forever setting sun.
And with the number of days at hand,
     my imagination is on the run.

It creeps about day in and day out;
     eternal bliss of envy and sight.
It screams aloud about my dorm,
     one more number this night.

For as finals draw near;
    I get less and less sleep.
And as the sun starts to rise,
    I hope these lessons will seep.
