James Gist Ii Poet I do not know?

Turning 22 On My Birthday

Another year has come and another birthday has arrived
I am 22 and man it feels good to be alive
Now a days with hurricanes and minimum wage
I see why it is hard to be alive
But I'm a junior in college
Trying to make it out so I can have something to give
Give what?
Is the question everybody asks me
I tell them a chance to see
How you go from a struggling student
To an all time role model or a masterpiece 
At least I have a dream so you know it wont be the end of me
This chapter of my life
Will be closed by next fall
But with the transition from rags to riches it will be noted 
that I must have given my all
