I'm Not Dumb, I'm Learning

There are people that put me down.

Mom says they do it because I smile so much and all they do is frown.

They call me names I don't care to repeat.

The teachers like them because they are masters of deceit.

There are days that I do not want to come to school.

Why would I when the unjust is there to rule.

 A popular thing I get called is 'dumb'.

I get told that I shouldn't be in this school in the presence of some.

This world is made up many different people and not all are kind.

Apparently, if you look up my name in the dictionary, a fat, annoying, loser is what I define.

I know I'm not the smartest kid, and I know I'm not that slim.

I never even thought of myself to be these words until them.

My mind wont let me stand up on my own.

I wish that I didn't have to come to this battle zone.

I come to school to learn and not be a bum.

I said it once and I will say it again, I. Am. Not. Dumb.

Just something that popped into my mind when some girls blocked my locker and made me late to class today.
