These few tears that fall
Use to be much more overall
When grades were everything
Nothing else yet to ding
I focused not enough
On emotional stuff
Sent to a therapist
That only made me pissed
Yet we became friends
But you won't like how it ends
She told me I had emotions of a 7-year-old
Just 2 years ago
That was almost my last session
It really got me twisted and upset
But she told me something else
I'd never forget it, I hold it so close
I'm 3 years smarter than most kids this age
And this thing, ain't just a phase
Now here I am, still smarter than most
Although, I'm not one to boast
School has been hard
Since every word felt like a glass shard
But I found a calling this past year
I hold it very close and dear
This passion of writing
With you, I'm sharing
I'm glad to find a home
Where I'll never feel alone
Most of my life, I'm sure y'all know
It was rough for me to get up and grow
But yet here I am
And bit by bit, I feel less damned
I've got you to thank
'Cause otherwise, I would've tanked
So thank you, my Opussian Family
For being the few, always supporting me.
