But Why?

Good grades

Good school

Good job

Good husband

Good life

But what if, 

We can't pay

We make the grades

We made the school

But what is stopping us?

"This college is affordable,

It's only 20 grand."

But then there's housing

And food

Transportation

Books

It's not 20

It's 43

And you ask why I might drop out of college

This poem is about: 
Me
My family
