I Am


I AM

Ricardo Cruz

I am 5’6” and wear a size twelve in shoes

I may be short but I’m big minded

I am religious

And I believe in Christ

I’ll always have faith in God

Because he will never leave my side

I am a senior in high school

I have one year left

I’m in the top 50% in my class

But I still haven’t done my best

I’m trying to get into the top quarter

And then I will rest

I spend countless hours day after day

Trying to get my grades

The way I want

I’ve been through many obstacles in life,

And I still keep fighting

Soon I will walk the stage

Get my diploma and attend TAMUSA

I will get my Bachelors in Accounting

And pursue my career in it

I may not look like type

But in reality I’m determined to do it

I am Ricardo Cruz
