As I sit here in Psychology
hoping and praying he doesn’t call on me.
Doesn’t ask me to tell the class about what were learning.
Just because I’m going through it.
I think why am I so afraid of telling everyone this
maybe I should
maybe then they would realize
that its ok to ask questions.
Its ok to be curious
its just human nature
to find out the truth.
Maybe then they will finally understand
that I need the questions
all of them.
I need to feel like they know it happened
to see that they care.
So I sit in my chair scared of hearing my name
and dreading the question that might follow.
With just a shred of hope
that it might come out
all of it
and finally maybe somebody would understand.
