First Day At High School Poem by Sboniso Siyanda Manqele

First day at high school
Cool but confusing, then I first saw you
Was your eyes that I wanted to look into
Was your desk that I wanted to pass through

First day at high school
I was so damn happy but sinking in fear
Too far, wishing but scared to be near
Class did intro only your name I wanted to hear

First day at high school
I knew I loved you, I also knew I was your man
But if I told you, you would've gone mad
Well that's not an excuse, I was so scared

First day at high school
Was only your smile that I wanted to smile back at
Was only your jokes that I wanted to laugh at
That I was your man, I guess I should've told you that

First day at high school
The bell rang, I couldn't believe was all for the day
If it was up to me we would've ignored and stay
I went back home but I couldn't bury the day

First day at high school
The day God brought an Angel to my life
I'll always love you, you my wife
I promise to love you with all of my life
