Dear God

Dear God,

Again I write to you

to thank you for today

I know it wasn't good

And the voices didn't go away

But I know for sure

That I have had worse days

And although the voices didn't stop

Sometimes they didn't play

And right now that's all that matters

I had to focus on me

I focused on getting better

Not with my mind but school you see

My parents don't like low grades

And by low I mean under 90

I've been getting all my homework done

And asking when I don't understand

Although my friends are slipping away

I know that I can

I can do better on other things

that don't require my mind

I can focus on other things

Things other than the crime

I know that I'm not better

And I know it may get worse

But for now I'm okay with how I live

Until I write another verse
