Don't Worry, Don't Be Afraid

You loved elementary school,
You were nice, followed all the rules.
But now it's time for high school,
You don't know if you are ready,
You don't even have a clue.

The classes, the try-outs, the games, the sports,
You know you need a lot more education, way more.

You can't tell if you're excited or upset,
But trust me hun, high school won't be a regret.
Think of all your friends, new people, and sights to see,
This is the age when it's time to be free.

You could be a writer, a doctor, a cook,
With just a pick up of a text book,
You know it's time to be let out of the nest,
But you're going to miss sitting at those other desks.

It's a hard decision to make,
But it's a risk you'll have to take.
Just take it easy,
You'll know when you're ready.
