life lessons slowly being relearned
i sit and hear the teacher speak for a turn
learn for the second
forget once i stop
looking at my arm in hope i burned the key to life there
directions on each lesson there
arrogent nature rams heads with the lessons i try to learn
released into the wild
my nature knows not how to react
never been here before
in this place
in this way
or maybe i have
and can no longer keep track
i lean to the others
everyone else in my pack
this new pack i wandered into
head looking down
afraid of attack
a whimper escapes
hoping it's enough of a hint
some laugh and chuckle
others maul it over for a quick second
just teach me this lesson
the one from my teachers
i didn't listen to them
but they explained too many broad details
i know i'm unhappy
please, fix it for me
but in the mean time,
please don't change me...

"my nature knows not of how to react"
ReplyDeletethe phtasing is strange. 'of' is unnecessary.
"and just can no longer keep track"
'just' seems unnecessary.
"this new pack i wandered into"
"head looking down, afraid of attack"
and once again, the multiple metaphors...but it flows better this time. i really like this =]
