The Poor Girls Scholarship
The excitement in my heart went wild
I jumped in mid-thought,
Screams of joy followed
“I did it!” “I did it!”
Again I thought to myself
There was no endings after all
Only brand new beginnings
Sometimes along the way, I had fallen
But I always stood right back up
I didn’t sulk, and have a pissy attitude
I made sure that I never gave up
And look at me now, as I stand here
Tall and proud
I did it, and I did it exceptionally well
I hear people shout and chant my name
Tears of joy will my eyes
I cry a little, and then I make sure the tears die
I walk across the stage, and get that piece of paper that I deserve
I never thought this would happen to me
I am beyond happy.
