My heart, my mind and my soul

It's hurting me to even let this show.

Giving up was never an option for me

but obstacles in my way wouldn't  allow me to see.

I'm doing the best that I can, I promise!

deep down inside I want to scream and yell

desperately yearning to tell.

So that someone can tell me to keep pressing

But my dreams won't allow me to keep second quessing.

Because college is a gaurantee

even though I'm in financial need.
