God give me strength
To handle this bullshit:
Of incompetent teachers
and these terrible textbooks;
Of beautiful friends
Who I'll miss when I'm gone;
Of girls who love me
Yet I can't love in return;
Of poetry --
That I can't write;
Of my ignorance
That constantly grows;
Of my sweet heart
Who wishes to choke me;
Of my parents
Who wish me to grow;
Of religion
That strangles me;
Of happiness
That eludes me;
And of my reason
To write this.
