Students

Michelle( ill go by sleepy lily for the next posts)

Piles of words, forced into me
Strings of numbers, None could I have solved
Dozens of lessons, all none could I have remembered
None of which I’ve ever chose
All for a piece of paper, to determine our worth?
Is it worth it? to sacrifice so much
to gain what?
A superficial nod from those who you don't know?
Those who will leave you for a mere thought?
Truly pathetic,
yet here I am ,
Truly ironic.
