School
They say school is a diamond of time
An exquisite part of any select persons life
But not mine
School is a prison
The bars keeping my ideas deep inside
Tiny bits of escape
Ideas bubbling to the surface
But school ties a brick to them
Sinking deeper
Till it hits rock bottom
You can only be held in prison for so long
For most at least
Just like prison, some have a death sentence
Not making it out
They lie in the shadows of achievers
They waste away in their cells of sorrow
Wishing they could accomplish what many have
School is the make or break of society
The only question is
Will it break you too?
