It's review.
Easy. Too easy.

Simplify by distributing
And combine like terms.

Move the variables first.

Move constants.

Solve and check.

But we already knew this. Why would we be here if we didn't?
I can't work if I'm not challenged.
And today, I nearly fell asleep.

This much homework on only the third day?
Are you ******* serious?!

This is insane...

I love school because I can get away from home,
But this just might ruin its for me.

I want my glasses to shine and glare
When I push them up my nose.

Maybe then I'll be taken seriously.
They always freak out and get all serious when that happens in anime shows, why not in real life?

Invisible, unknown.
What's the difference?
Either way I am not seen.
Not believed.
Blamed for everything.

And someone else gets credit for my accomplishments.

Maybe that's why I strive to be
Noticed.
I correct people,
I talk nonstop,
I go on rants about things that no one cares about.
I don't try to.
It just slips out.

And maybe that's why I write in class.

Because I know I am heard here.
You know me better than they do.

Why can't life be easy?
They make it seem blissful in the movies,
Why not here?

I'm sick of the stress,
The sadness,
The anxiety,
Everything!

Why can't things be like the movies?

The pressure behind my eyes
Will not give.
But I know the dam is breaking.
I just need a push.
Someone to say something,
Or do something that makes me
Cry.
I need a hug.

I don't know what, but
Something doesn't feel quite right...
I must be going crazy.
