Graduation Day

Trapped in a corner I shall not be
I’ll walk out that door
I shall be free
Bound to this desk
By a ball and chain
So much effort, far too little gain
One day soon I’ll be strong enough
I simply won’t take anymore of your “guff”
I’ll write that letter of resignation
And take off to a brand new destination
To a place where I will be held in esteem
Yes, one day soon I’ll realize my dreams
I’ll not look back with regret or sorrow
Off, I’ll be enjoying a brighter tomorrow
I’m grateful, sir for your cruel and callous ways
For the smugness in your voice and the harsh words you say
Unwittingly, you’ve planted a seed
This piss poor paycheck I will no longer need
From this day forward I’ll cast aside all fear
It’ll be a cold day in hell, before you reduce me to tears
I’ve crossed off day one of two-hundred and fifty-nine
Just nine more months and it will be time
I’ll smile broadly as I brusquely say
Good-bye, Good-Riddens
I RESIGN as of TODAY!!!

------- Author's Notes -------

Sorry for the "language", hope it doesn't offend anyone. Not a good day at work. This was my way of letting off steam. God willing, I will graduate in May and this fantasy here will come true :)

loved your expressiveness

You write how you feel which is good. Go after that dream ,with the way you write you have talent
in communication. Go after what you want!

me too

I'm just agreeing with everyone else tonight. Thought I'd stop by this addicting site before I study for my quiz on tomorrow night.

This describes your feelings well and clear of the way you feel toward certain people who enjoy giving you a hard time!

Perfect!
