Live, love and laugh

Says the poster on the classroom board

How ironic are it’s words

I live to see the waves of the beauty

Crashing against the rocky shore

By the waters right next door

But receive scolds because I chose to see the lake

And now my homework will be late

I love a boy who I chose to be in my life

Spending hours doing nothing without complaint

Only to reject offers because of school restraints

Endless studying or mindless fun

Unfornately I can only choose one

I laugh with the boy I love

On the lake where we begin to live

Giving each other all the time we have to give

Trying to show each other we care

But always fearing the teacher’s glare

Live, love, and laugh

Says the poster on the classroom board

How ironic are it’s words
