Will everyday be like this?

I hope it won't.

Nothings new, I wake up, same hour, Greet the mirror, same reflection, no power. Off to school, same tiredness, all days, Routine repeats, in a monotonous maze. Nothings new, as the sun rises high, Same old routine, beneath the same sky. Morning echoes, a familiar tune, A cycle of sameness, like a tired monsoon. Nothings new, in the classroom's embrace, Same desks, same faces, in the same space. Lectures drone on, a predictable song, Day after day, it seems so long. Nothings new, as the bell finally rings, Same footsteps, same corridors, the same old things. Homework awaits, a relentless demand, In this never-changing, repetitive land. Nothings new, as the night descends, Same tired thoughts, as the day ends. I lie in bed, the same weary sigh, A lullaby of sameness, beneath the starry sky. Nothings new, yet the world spins around, In the same orbit, in silence, profound. Life unfolds, in its unchanging view, And I wonder if there's more, or if it's all true. Nothings new, but I dream of a change, A break from the cycle, a chance to rearrange. For in the echoes of monotony's song, May there be a whisper of something new, before too long.

The only way to stop the routine is with choice. If you choose to break the monotony, it will change. Maybe not in one day but it WILL change. Nice rhyming and rhythm, Ariana. You have discovered your talent early. Perhaps that is a clue to the change you are seeking? Keep writing!
