The Struggle Is Real
Every sound is screeching
Every voice is wailing,
Larger than life.
No stillness
Never.
Every eye is on me
When I have to go up there
Alone
The whole class is waiting
For me to
Finish
They say they need it to pass the test
Or they want to have a good time
But their laughs make our struggle harder
The kids who don’t take Adderall for fun.
