Im failing

I'm sorry i'm failing your class

I'm sorry I have a job 

and a family that's split in two

I'm sorry I'd rather write this poem

Than work on homework 

I'm sorry I stayed after school to work on this poem

Instead of get help on homework

I'm sorry

That I ache to write

To feel

To believe

Ad I'm sorry I don't believe

Y=mx+b will solve all my problems

And soh cah toa 

Will fulfill my dreams

I'm sorry that you know I need to know this stuff

And I'm failing

Because pi was never as cool as you made it out to be

And math never taught me how to mend a broken heart

And math never hid my tears

And math never set me free

So I'm sorry but 

I think I'll stick to writing
