~I'm tired of failing- A poem~ I try, I fail, Every time, Not once, I get something right, No matter how hard I try, I always get something wrong, I always fail, I’m tired of being called stupid, I’m tired of failing, Always getting something wrong, Always needing to erase and start again, Always trying my best, but getting my momentary hope of finally getting having a right answer dashed against the rocks, Always having bad grades, In music, math, or science, Always having to start over and over, Always crying when I stare at the horrid test and I can’t think of the answers, Always being the second best in the house and never the first, Always observing my tests-math or music-with not one thing marked right, Always seeing my tests filled with red pen, Always failing at everything, I never got a good grade I can remember, Never got a smile and a “Great job!”, Never got an over-fifteen mark, Never got better than my brother, Never improved at anything Never stopped dreaming even though everything seemed hopeless, Never gave up hope, Even if all the odds seem to be against me, Never stopped trying hard until now because I know I’ll never make it, Never a day, a test, a page, where I always get something right, I’m tired of failing, I’m tired of everything, Why can’t I get better? I fail, always, I try, I give up, I try, I can’t, I try, I’m alone, But, I try, To get better
This is something I "wrote in my head" while I was doing a math exercise for the 4th or 5th time. Btw, I actually do have horrid grades in math or music. Exemples: in math, I get like 55% on every math test I do. My worst music grade is 7,60 out of 20 ToT And, if you're wondering if the 7th line is real, it is(everything is real in this poem). I have been called stupid several times. But, I try to get better, even though some days it seems hopeless. Hope you enjoy! Poem and cover by me. Music: Forgive me.
