Am not the only one.


They call me isatu, the wife of muhammad has the muslim say

but am not the only one with a name like that.

You once called me isha,

but that's not who i am.

You once made me cry,

but you dont understand when i say math is not my thing,

i guess am ont the only one.

School is the only place i can find myself free,

free of hate,killing,dieing but i guess you won't unterstand.

i love school

i love school

and no am the best.
