What I Wish to say

December 13, 2013

Bite your tongue

and if you can't then I 

will Bite it for you!

Listen as I speak.

Don't criticize me over a 

mistake made yesterday. 

That kid you threw to the back

The one you forgot,

Yeah that was me and if that

Isn’t the low down

Hoe down dirty shit you

did to me.

I was that kid that brought you

A card to wish you well

The kid that really tried her best

But you treated me the same.

When that bell rang you told us

Get out but instead, I stayed

My grade

I try and try to do what’s right

I stay up all night

Study study that’s all I did

But now.

 Bite my tongue!

And if I can’t  then

Listen as I speak.
