They say knowledge<br />
is a necessary weapon<br />
to have when battling life.<br />
They say learning is fun<br />
and a key part<br />
of what makes us human.<br />
And maybe they’re right.<br />
But I’m tired<br />
of staring at my paper,<br />
frustrated because<br />
none of my keys unlock the safe<br />
that holds the answer to this question.<br />
I’m tired<br />
of carving words into my head<br />
and then never using them.<br />
I’m tired<br />
of learning the<br />
who’s<br />
what’s<br />
and where’s<br />
And never learning the<br />
why’s<br />
and how’s.<br />
I’m tired<br />
of painting rivers on my cheeks<br />
because I can’t meet<br />
their standards of success.<br />
I wish my eyes weren’t puffy from crying<br />
I’m tired<br />
of wasting more than 12 years<br />
on a system<br />
that doesn’t give me knowledge,<br />
but gives me<br />
Stress,<br />
Anxiety,<br />
Panic attacks,<br />
and Depression.<br />
