I Don't Know

I am awkward, but something good’s about to happen.
I just feel it tingling inside of me. But I’m a little scared,
Because I have no earthly idea of what it could possibly be.

I am excited. And nervous because this is new.
I felt this before, but when I was much younger.
This is that feeling you get, the last few days of school,
When you know you have nothing else important to do.

But I still have to wake up early. I still have to work.
I still have to deal with my friends and my silly quirks.
I have obligations the summer can’t hide, so why?
Why do I feel like I am going to be so surprised?

My legs are restless, watching my feet bang on the floor.
I can’t stop talking and I’m walking so much more.
When did this energy get poured into me? And how?
What good is coming my way to justify my feeling this way?
