amazing.
while grading poetry, a piece written by one of my students absolutely shook me to the core with one of the realest lines ive read in a loooong time.
“i was good enough to sleep with, but not good enough to be seen with”
god. the life that teenage females live… im not particularly close to this student or anything other than the respect i have for her writing ability, but reading this piece makes me wish there was some way that i could do more for my students and what they go through on a daily basis. so much respect goes out to the females that managed to survive this part of life without letting the scars define who you are now.
