I Never Gave Up

Sofie Levy

27 April 2017

Assignments that seem like few papers to some

Are mountainous to me.

 I attempt to focus,

Yet I realize

 my attention is lost. 

The unfair standards cause unnecessary stress. 

I am concerned about experiencing

 retribution.

Teachers are aware of 

my disability, But are 

incapable

 Of supplying additional help.

I try teaching myself; most of the time I fail,

But I never give up. My 

ambition 

was to graduate with my class. 

My teacher sat down with me 

And read for hours.

It was difficult, But eventually I was reading words. 

If it was not for that teacher, 

I would have never become the author I am.
