Listen to Me


I raise my hand

Because I have a question

I call your name

Because I don’t understand

I want you to listen

Because I don’t know it all

Even though I’m leaving next fall

I need now to stand tall

With all my achievements

So answer my questions

Let me sit by myself

Not with people I hate

I want to succeed

, but I need your help

So don’t ignore me

Help me move forward

And better my future
