Engraved

I can feel the frustration simmering inside,
I can see the happiness being deprived,
I can feel the anger washing over you,
I can sense the loss of your security.

 

Some try to help, but maybe you don't notice,
Maybe you think we're all full of malice,
I hope you realise how highly we respect you,
For dealing with your life and us too,

 

The lessons you taught us will be forever entwined,
With our hearts, souls, brains and minds,
Deep inside you will be remembered,
Engraved inside us forever and ever.

Author's Note

A couple of kids my algebra class last year started getting on our (amazing) teacher's case, and essentially started rapping about how she was a horrible person and didn't deserve to live and that her husband hated her and wants to divorce her, and she had a breakdown and kicked them out and started crying, and my best friend and I wrote this and gave it to her as the bell rang. (We refers to my friend and I.)

This is a wonderful tribute to your teacher you and your friend did a good deed. I am very proud of you.
