And The Teacher Glared
I just wasn’t sharp
Couldn’t focus so I caused trouble
And the teacher glared
Soon I became aware
While most kids took a test I doodled
And the teacher glared
These exams realized on memory
I had none so I withdrew instead
And the teacher glared
Along about fourth grade I matured
Boys and men wanted to touch me
And the teacher glared
And I could pick the bad boys
It’s easier to ditch class
And the teacher glared
Half child no where near a women
IT’s attention I craved and the man’s lust
And the teacher glared
I knew no other way of being in the world
I was thrown to the bed somehow he knew
And the teacher glared
I could keep a guy long enough to feel special
All elbows knees a way too big egos
And the teacher glare
In pain I cried out help me
But no one answered
AndThe teacher glared
I found a sharp knife and then cut my wrist
First I felt a stinging,then draining as life slipped away
And the teacher wept as she said she never noticed
I was alone when I was born and I died just the same
No one remembers me sept the bad boys
And they did not shed a tear
