Remember when I came to class
Looking down and blue
U came and sat next to me
U asked if I was ok
U offered for me to talk to u
I know it was a guy problem
But u were still there
Our conversation turned from him to other strange stuff
That's got to be the time
I realized u cared
The first time I spoke to u
U sat on the table
U listened
U gave me advice
I'm very grateful
Remember the time I came to u
Told u my friends were killing me
U told me that I should do
Is just to let it be
The day I stayed back in class
And told u I was going through depression
U gave me advice and warmth
Helped me to see I was loved
I'm a good person
U convinced me to go see the school councillor
Didn't help much but it helped that u cared
2 weeks later u broke your leg
I heard u weren't coming back til next term
The rest of the term went by so slow
'cause u werent there
And the replacement teacher didn't know what to do
U came back and I was glad
Was weird seeing u walk on ur own
U came back
That's all that mattered
Last day of school
I told u
U were one of the best teachers I've ever had
I stand by what I said
We've been through some times
Weak and tough
The fact that u were my teacher went away
Instead of the boring old teachers that hang around
U became a friend..
A friend I'm going to miss forever..
Love from Penni..
(this is to a teacher who showed me he was there for me no matter what the problem. Please comment.. )
