I wrote this poem in 9th grade:
I had a beer behind a book, no one gave me a second look.
I shot up in a back hall, no one seems to care at all.
I failed five tests in a row, people act like they don't know.
I had a joint under the stairs, I guess that no one really cares.
When I was thirteen, I ran away. I was gone for over a day.
When I got home, I got a beating, which wasn't exactly what I was needing.
I'm more innocent than I appear, for growing up is what I fear.
I'm just a kid, not sure of what I did.
I don't know where to go from here, I guess I'll have another beer.
