A is for Apathetic


The first thing I see

was what adequate

work I've done

I could do better, for sure

But A was the only best

I could accept

Straight As


A is for Anxiety


It's over

I'm done

There's a relief

A sense of peace

I won't feel any grief

without Fs at the end

no record or report that

I'm a Failure


A is for Anger


Am I angry?

Could I have done better

but I tried everything

and anything

that I could

to get that letter


but I am not that grade,

that's supposed to be so great


What Am I


I am not an A


The author's comments:

I was inspired to write this about my grades, which are straight As... but I don't really feel that way... about myself...
