I've had enough!

I am sick of trying
and not succeeding

I am sick of giving
and not receiving

Why should I try,
when I'm not going to succeed?

Why should I give,
when I am not going to receive?

I have had enough
I decided to quit
because I know I don't deserve
to be in a position like this.

I deserve better
after all I have done.
I know in this battle,
I should have won,

but I've made my decision
and I am happy with it
because I'll no longer  have to continue
dealing with all of this.

Author notes

This poem is about how I dropped out of High School. I was poorly treated at my high school by both the students and the faculty. I was given grades I did not deserve and I fell far behind when my grandma got Lung Cancer and passed away in December. In my opinion, everything I went through with my teachers were because of personal issues. The A (choras, of course) and B (math) I got was given both by teachers, whom I got along with. Here's a big shocker, my guidance counselor removed me from those classes, after I told her those were the only classes I was truly happy and comfortable in..

I am now getting my GED. I hopefully will pass the test and go to CCM in January.

    High School sucks. Funny how most people get older and reminisce about high school. Not me - It sucked then, and I never forgot it. The poem surely shows your soul was wounded by all that, but there is a subtle undertone that it did not break your spirit. Kudos!
