History

It's so old and in the past.
I mean like it's over with,
and you cant actually learn it
because its finished.

It's all memorization
all the dates
and times
and geographic features
and the famous people
who did famous stuff.

I mean who really cares?
We weren't born yet,
so how does it affect us?
It doesn't make sense
that I'm actually really good in history
'cause I don't even like it
and I hate essays.

But history is important.
It helps us learn the past
to help guide our future
and not make the same mistakes
they did.
