Poem
Another year is going to pass... 18 years of life... and I still feel... as if I have done nothing. Even though I know that is not true. I sang in an amazing choir for the four years of high school I helped several people I helped them overcome fears and much more. I volunteer at the animal shelter I feed the animals I play with them I help people find the perfect match and their faces when they finally adopt... that is my payment and a great one at that. I do know one thing... in my 18 years of life I have done nothing... Nothing for my family. Sure I help clean but that is hardly anything... I can't lift their spirits I can't lift the burden of bills I can't do anything. I wish I could do more. Now in high school I helped create a club the Animal Awareness Club. We informed students about animals. Animals that were endangered We held a trip to a kind of animal sanctuary. We also sold food to raise money at food court In the end the teacher was leaving She was our adviser we couldn't find another and the club died out.. In high school everyone pushed me with prom. "it's not my thing" that's what I would say I wanted to go My family wanted to go, my sisters had both gone before me. but it was too expensive. I told myself "we need that money for bills" and we did, for other things too. There was no prom for me there was no senior trip. In my 18 years of life I have only done so much
