You can tell school is ending

When they finally remember locker keys

And ask for them back

Or else..


You can tell school is ending

When they start electing next years leadership team

And you only recognize one person running

Who was in your tutor group

When tutor groups counted for something

So give her a vote, even though her's wasn't the best


You can tell school is ending

When they no longer tell you off for playing cards

Instead, they snipe about work

You should have to do

Well, we got exams

Sorry mini-assessments next week

But you can tell school is ending

When there's literally nothing to do in lessons anymore

Over only going over stuff missed the first time

And just letting us get on with it


You can tell school is over

And they don't bother to force us to do Pe or PSHE anymore

When there's drama about pranks and dress up day

When one positive covid test

Means it's over right now.

When photos are collated

Holidays planed

No longer the favorite year

Because of teams beef

When you need to add sun cream to your routine

When you're sad

And you fight

And you don't know why

Because everything is ending

And it went quicker than you thought it did

And you're not ready

But you are

It's not like your imagined

But you made it

And it's over.


Soon you'll be hugging and crying

In fancy dress

Promising to stay in touch

Hoping that between it all

You've done enough.
