Today I spoke to one of my male teachers
He was really kind to me
He gave advice, was really nice
And is helping me when I need it
He has given his time up for me
Now that's dedication
I don't know any other teachers that would do that
All throughout the nation
He is more like a friend than a teacher now
I know I can trust him with what I say
I've not told him the most important bit yet
I don't know what he'll say
I can't tell him it all, or can I?
I just don't want anyone else to know
They'll call me a freak and hurt me again
My mind is too and fro
I can't cope anymore, it's so not fair
What will he say when I tell him
Will he think i'm a freak
Or will he just help me
That's what i'm looking for
Help and guidence
Throughout my life
Because at the minute it is just a mess! !
