FOR REAL

Shut up to the Latin teacher. Who says, “There are people you can talk to if you need help. Don’t go to the dean for that kind of help though.â€?

STUPID .

Just leave me alone to cry in the back of your classroom. Alone. It will pass if you stop trying to “helpâ€? me. Teachers teach and yet, they are clueless.

Tune out mommy’s words. “Sometimes you just act like you don’t know things. I don’t understand why you’re acting like this.â€?

Just saying, “You’re acting stupid.â€? Would have been easier.

Or better yet, a simple, “I know you’re smarter than this.â€? Would not make me feel like burrowing in a hole.

Goodbye to your words. Your lips might be moving but no sound I hear.

Say bye, bye to the boy who loves me. Drevon. Him. The one that declares. The one that waits.

I don’t want you to wait for me. I never loved you.

I liked you for the wrong reasons but it’s all gone now. Those feelings disappeared months ago, so leave me alone. Forever.
