Dreams Delayed By Dollars
Location
My dad said the only way I'll get into college is if I get scholarships
There are no miracles , no wishes , or any fancy tricks
You work hard for what you want
And never give up or in So I thought I'd try for a poem
And see if I win All of my life I've received A's and B's
I've always pictured me going to college
And in the future, living my dreams
But suddenly I was heart broken to what my realization was
My dad can't afford for me to go to college
Even though I know he wants me to, he really does
So why does college have to be so expensive?
An education that seems to be a necessity these days
Shouldn't put young adults in debt
And leave them with sorrow and possible regret
Education is something beautiful and spread everywhere you go
So why put students in future bankruptcy
Where they will never have enough money, they'll always be low
Some don't even bother with college
Even after years of wasted hard work and well learned knowledge
So many young adults can't afford the thousands of dollars
Even if it means the end of the dream to be an educated scholar
So here is one speaking through a poem
Trying to have money for college, so I can make it somewhere
Because I know without a college degree, it seems to be rare
Hopefully in the future , teens wont have to struggle to pay for school
But who am I kidding , economy is cruel
