I remember the day,

Back when it was all games,

Back when nothing was gray

And all you had to learn were names.

The years went by,

The classes got harder.

To my childhood I had to say goodbye.

But at the same time I was getting smarter.

Now that I'm on my way to college

I see the importance of the struggle.

I still have to aquire much knowledge

And I know that i will stumble.

I must learn to be strong 

For after the long road there is a rainbow

And although the road may be long,

The prize at the end will be well worth it.
