  1. Late.
    I am always running late.
    To the bus,
    to the car,
    I always miss the date.
    Time.
    I lose track of time.
    Have no watch,
    have no clock,
    I couldn't spare the dime

  2. I abruptly wake up
    and slowly get out of bed.
    My breakfast comes in a cup
    It tastes like something dead.

    I mope around the house
    and take my precious time.
    But when the clock strikes 9
    I'm running out of time.

    I scurry to get in my cold car
    And don't forget to grab my lunch and purse.
    Then I dangerously speed to school
    Thankfully I haven't needed a hearse!

  3. I was late for my date.
    And my date couldn't wait.
    I heard he was irate.
    Now I'm left without a mate.

    Haha! :D It's just that kind of day.

  4. I woke up late
    My hair will have to wait
    I pull on my shirt
    And then couldn't find my skirt
    Now it's 8
    And I'm 20 minutes late.

  5. Late.
    Always running late for school.
    i run into the school looking like a fool,
    i dont have time for food,
    which puts me in a bad mood!
    Running late is never okay,
    especially on days like today!


    there ya go! ha!

  6. Lateness is a state of mind
    An empty feeling inside the soul
    That alters our day
    And prolongs the attainment of goals.

    Lateness is an emotion
    A questionable sadness
    That sweeps like tall grasses in the wind
    And leaves our questions unanswered.

    Lateness is a worry
    A deep cavern eroding with time
    That halts our recovery
    And lynches those who attempt the climb.

  7. Im late, im late
    I hope my teacher will wait

    We have work, and tests and things to do
    Please wait oh wait oh wait

    The time is flying I need to move fast
    Or my dignity will no longer last

    I am running through the door of school
    My untidyness makes me look like a fool

    I burst into the room with my excuse ready to say

    When I realize....Its Satuday

  8. I'm late, I'm late
    For a very important date!
    No time to say hello, goodbye!
    I'm late, I'm late, I'm late.

    hahaha, oops. Was it supposed to be from our mind? :P

  9. Why is life a struggle against time
    You always have to go somewhere, talk to somebody, do something
    You are always running late
    You were late to your meeting
    You were late to work
    You are always late
    Why do I always have to go somewhere, talk to somebody, do something
    I am always running late
    I were late for my meeting
    I were late to work
    I am always late
    Why is life a struggle against time
    It is so easy to miss living your life, because you were always worried about running late.

  10. When you get up late you feel
    as though your day is past started.
    Your day is half over
    And soon your night will be too.

  11. Stressing out
    Running late
    don't have time to hesitate
    driving fast
    making class
    hoping not to be the last

  12. Once again I’m running late.
    I know that it is pretty bad.
    No reason for you to hate,
    For that will make me sad.

    Because I slept in too long,
    School is not an option now.
    Just listen to a happy song
    And don’t have a giant cow.

    Watching funny movies all day
    Really isn’t that unbearable.
    Having nothing to do or say
    Is when things get terrible.

    Yet here I lay in my comfy bed,
    Though I will get a tad behind.
    Sleep is vital, I’ve heard it said
    By a small voice inside my mind.
