Dream


High school is not the greatest place to be.

When your parents divorce, and you want to scream.

Teachers wanting you to get more and more work done.

But you’ve already given up on your dream.

Then somebody calls out your name.

She catches you by surprise.

She’ll change the way you see the world

You’ll have to hold back your tears from trying not to cry.

She won’t give up on you, at all she says.

She won’t let you fail, in fact she’ll keep your dreams alive.

Every bit of fight you had will come back to you.

Because one courageous person said that she would never give up on you.

Now I am on the way to finish my dream.

All I can say is thank you Coach B.
