"All Nighter" - Extended Metaphor Poem

It was a choice I had to make right then and there:
Stay up late on my phone or go to sleep.
If I stayed up late everyone would think I’m so cool,
but in the morning we have a test, so I’ll look like a fool.
If my parents find me on my phone they’ll get real mad.
It’s just one night.

My phone keeps ringing from all my messages, 
I can’t just leave my friends behind.
It's just one night,
it will be alright.

I would be so tired in the morning
it’s a school night.
I would have to wake up at 6:00am,
if I go to bed.....

I’m going to do an ALL NIGHTER!
It’ll be so fun.
My choice was to stay up!
It’s just one night!

  2. Great poem! I could really relate to this poem. This is a choice I have to make every night. I agree with you about making the choice to stay up.
