feeling caught

feeling caught
between a rock
and a hard place

feeling distraught
over you being
within that space

knowing what's wrought
there and what
you'll have to face

I have never bought
into the rhetoric
on which they base

all their teaching is fraught
with; while I've tried
to make my case

it's you who sought
to enter into this
daily race

and while I've fought
to keep you here,
I hope there is a trace

of what you ought
to know, allowing them
nothing to erase
