School

It's coming.

It's so close you can practically touch it.

Its making me anxious.

I'm biting my nails and pacing back and forth every night.

My mind is restless.

They announce it on commercials 30 fucking days before we even start it! 

I mean give us a fucking break without reminding us so constantly!

Yeah, I mean we aren't the smartest brains. 

And yeah, our nation averages C+, but that's passing right?

What more do you want from us!

Oh, yes we are Exemplary!

The issue isn't entirely our fault.

To many people give up on us.

Our role models fail to give us good examples.

And the only good people left are destroyed.

So can you blame us for being...

Failures.

Afraid.

Unwelcoming.

Pessimist. 

The truth is school frightens me just like it did the first time in Pre-K.

The expectations.

The other kids.

The teachers.

The rules.

And the most of all...

Me.

I fight to stay the person who I am.
