Homework

How can I do my homework?

How can I study when there is so much pressure?

My grades are slipping and they keep on slipping.

And I don't even have the help I need.

Why doesn't my mom know algebra?

And why couldn't I be born into a rich family.

It doesn't matter.

I have to try to get better.

I want to do sports and study and make something of myself.

But dad says that school stuff is useless.

And says that he one sees me one day a week on the weekends.

So that is more important than homework.

And I feel bad for him.

Cause I remember them fighting.

At least there is peace now.

Alright, head down.

Its time to do homework.
