When You Least Expect It
It comes when you least expect it
The sun sets, lights go off, the stars dim
Everyone stares at the black chalkboard sky
Waiting for a teacher to scrawl the answers
To a series of questions you’ve been asking
Yourself since the first sleepless night it ever
Made you shudder in the dark.
Everyone has their hands folded on their desks.
Yours are in your lap
Holding a pair of dusty erasers.
