Why Not?

Why Not stop telling me I'm dumb

Why Not believe in me for once

I know your comment was about me

The one where you wished I wouldn't slap words together and call it an essay

I tried, I really did

Stayed up all night for that essay

"Try agian" is all I get.

I would've wrote you a poem, had that been the assignment

But you'd probaly thrown it away

Crushing the last hope I brought threw your door

Build me up, dont take me down

Now you're mad I didn't do my work

WHY NOT you say

Why bother I say.
