You’re a polar teacher Taught me how to smile while I’m aching Taught me how to laugh until my body started shaking Taught me what it’s like to be important Taught me how to push myself when I thought I couldn’t These are wonderful things that you helped me learn But there are some lessons that make me burn You taught me how to cry in silence to not cause a scene You taught me that there’s a point where all I can do is collapse and scream You taught me trust is something that can break You taught me that there’s only so much I can take
