My Conflicted Feelings for My Favorite Teacher
My favorite teacher, oh how I adore
But lately, her words have been a bore
She stresses me out, makes me feel so blue
I wish she knew what it's like to walk in my shoe
I long for her not to be my guide
But then the thought makes me want to hide
For she's been my rock, my support, my friend
And losing her would make my heart ache and bend
Yet, her recent advice makes me want to scream
How can she not see, it's not as easy as it may seem
To just shake off depression and be happy again
If only it were so simple, if only she knew the pain
I wish she understood mental health
And that her words could be damaging to oneself
But I still hold her close to my heart
Even though her words tear me apart
My favorite teacher, please hear my plea
Take the time to understand and see
That mental health is not a choice we make
And sometimes, it's not a path we can just shake.
