Hard Work

From long nights,
To hard work. 
I’ve put my best foot forward, 
Striding into my future. 

I’ve cancelled plans, 
Missed meals, 
And gone without sleep, 
But man this feeling. 
It’s one you can’t beat 

They say they’re proud. 
I’ve really turned my life around.
From frequent absences, 
Missing assignments, 
And constant tardy’s. 
 
 All my Blood, 
All that Sweat, 
And All those Tears
Over the years. 
None going to waste, 
They motivated me to win this race.
