7th Grade Poetry Portfolio: Villanelle

I enjoy the satisfaction of lying in bed.

and sleeping to almost half past eight,

with nothing but emptiness inside my head

without the weekend, I might drop dead,

thankfully, blankets save me before it’s too late,

I enjoy the satisfaction of lying in bed.

late homework, hard test, are things that I dread,

but weekends take stress from my silent state,

with nothing but emptiness inside my head.

When Friday then ends, the go ahead,

to weekend mode kicks in without wait,

I enjoy the satisfaction of lying in bed.

As soon as it’s time, I always shed

every coat, jacket, then the bed is so great,

with nothing but emptiness inside my head.

But weekends end, going fast overhead,

go back to school, with an empty but clean slate,

I enjoy the satisfaction of lying in bed,

with nothing but emptiness inside my head.
