Can't See Me

Remember me
The one who you called
STUPID
The one you claimed that was being
ABRASIVE
The one who would FAIL
You were always so frigid
Oblivious
An Ass
Never stayed after school to help me
Instead you would bail
Abstain to the fact that I needed you
Can’t see me
Even though you were suppose to be my role model
You killed my desire
My blithe fire
See remember that day I got that answer right
I was that girl who wasn’t WHITE

You were disenchantment to cruel reality
Teaching me Geometry?
You preached republican
As if it was your religion
Jorge Bush would have been a better democrat than you
The nuance of ignorant behavior repented my faith
You were a pretender
And smelled like a dirty hamper
You were my domestic hate
“I have a question!”
Every time you comment on my paper
Saying, “This isn’t proper!”
When the white girl next to me has the same answer
Yet I was the one to blame
“I need your help!”
You killed my faith
My mom would ask me
“How was your day?”
Besides the kids harangue
And you being a reprehensible d---
All I want to do was to pretend sick
“I don’t get that problem?”
Was it really because of my skin color
Or were you oblivious that the war was over
Was it the way I talked?
The way I walked?
Was it jealously?
Was it dishonesty?
You called me slow
When in reality you were just like yellow snow
Smelly
Cold
Dirty
Old
What did I have to do?
To become the student you love
Become a democrat and eat
Dove
Candy
Change my name to Mandy
Change my hair to blonde
And start talking like I’m gone
Become fond
To your repentant
Lectures
Of you trying to be a Dexter
Or maybe a professor
Remember Me
