Hi everyone! I'm super sorry about not updating yesterday! Microsoft Word decided to be a big fat poop head and tell me, repeatedly, that my files didn't exist….and then it decides to close down on me! Seven different times! I had to keep rewriting my lit HW…-sobs-

Well, enough about my troubles! Please read and enjoy the new poems! (I'll be doing a huge update as a big sorry and thanks to everyone who reads it! Don't be shy! I don't mind random reviews from chapter whatever~ I just love that you actually care enough to review!)

[Departure]

My knees are trembling

They knock and shake as if I was facing some great foe or trap

How I scorn them!

For this is but my first battle

I have only just left home yesterday

Though it feels as though it was yesteryear

How will I make it?

Can I go on if this is what happens to me every time?

I feel so bad

None of the others act as I do

And perhaps I should know why that is

But when I ask

I am met with a soft smile, and reassurances

"Don't worry"

They say

"It's natural to feel this way on your first day"

And so then, after a short while

That seems to go on forever

My knees stop shaking

My heart stops pounding

And I can continue on my first adventure

My very first

Departure
