Why Not Me


WHY NOT ME As my day for graduation is getting so close I ask what memories matter the most What have I learned and who do I want to be What sort of college and for what type of degree? Helping others is something close to my heart And making a difference would be a great start High School has prepared me to give it my all Face life being positive while standing up tall Looking back on the four years that went by so fast Memories fill my head and remind me of Oh what a blast Teachers and friends and the things we have learned Going to college is definitely something I’ve earned I am proud of the person that I have become Open and honest is my first rule of thumb Reach for the stars as far as you can see When it seems impossible, believe why not me? As you see yourself is how others will perceive you too Your behavior and actions matter in the things that you do Hold on to the people who you look up to the most Families important and you should keep them close I am hoping and wishing that my dream will come true Being focused on my future and seeing it through Full of hope and being confident is now what I see As I believe in my heart, Why not Me?
