As I sit here and wait for day,

which is a far way away.

As I wait for night to leave,

I give my heart one last heave.

The time seems to drag by so slow,

as I wait to yell Woo!

Finally, at last it is here,

night has gone and day will appear.

The time is almost there,

as I start pulling out my hair.

Just turned twelve years old you see,

I am as old as old can be.

My sister is unaware,

as she hugs her teddy bear.

Now I am over the hill,

but all I feel is one cold chill,

and a little tired.
