Trust me when I say That I know How bad I really am At everything My poems Aren't deep enough There aren't enough metaphors Or complex wording While doing math I use my calculator And still manage To plug in the wrong digits I tried to balance equations Several times in chemistry And while feeling too confident I missed a number In history class I can't seem to remember That I gained my right as a woman To vote in 1920 (I think.) While working with photography My professor indirectly told me That I'm really good At taking bad pictures I'm really trying this year To stay on top of my work And do my best But obviously that's not enough
