 I know whagainou're going to say.

" It's an excuse."

So why should I bother.

 It's not like I'd tell my friends 

 Or my parents whats bothering me 

 So why would I tell you 

 You have thirty other students and your own worries so it should not be a big deal right to you any way.

 But then again you ask the same question you did yesterday and the day before

"Where is your homework?"

 "Why are you late?"

I not sure if my answer even matters to you and all I can think you are lucky I am here at all 

But that doesn't matter

I happens again 

And again 

Until finally ask 

But what if 

 I cant tell you without bursting out into tears 

 What if the truth to embarrassing

 Its not my falt is it 

I didn't ask for my family's circumstances
