What Makes me Rich
College seems
like a far away dream
will I get to the finish line
Can I afford it? can I buy more time?
I will pay you in hugs and kisses
i will pay you in ranting wishes
I will pay you in laughter and smiles
I will pay you by going thorught your trials
Taking on your burden as my own
Or maybe by writing you a poem
i will pay you in in time
i will pay you in grades
I will pay you in paying attention
to what you will say or have already said
I will pay you with love and passion and vulnerability
I will pay you with eyes that can see
Ears that can hear
and a mouth that can sooth
With hands that can wipe away each tear.
I will pay you in strength even when I have none left
I will pay you in all that I am even my last breath!
