We use to wreak havoc together
At a small little school
With characters and phrases
Making the teacher look like a tool
Our Chinese school was hell
But ever Saturday we still went
Our partnership was one of destruction
Causing even the principal to vent
We sat at the back of the class
While all the proper students sat at the front
Determination in their eyes
Asian tiger parents forcing them to survive
While ours were much the same
Except a little more lenient
We passed everything so good enough
Our ways more devious
A team effort it was
We all passed with flying colours
Not without full blow hatred from others
Though we weren't bothered
And years have past us by
No longer do we speak
At most we have a snap record
But we only ever sent streaks
Though your basic asian look
closely matching with mine
except for you being a guy
and having black pitched eyes
We were close once before
We were a childish endeavour
Now reduced to nothing
Without a single word ever
And write as I will
About that old forgotten letter
and the missing you with my heart
but I can't get any better
As my will to talk to you is broke
I'm scared of the words I once spoke
With the shattered picture frame on the floor
I dare not defy those laws
Until you flash by my life again
For a moment, for a single memory or sight
I'll remember you in my heart
As meaningless as that is
For you will never know
I'll miss you forever
My little Troublemaker
Be happy and stay safe
