Michelle Ciecwierz

If you don't learn to write your own story, someone else will write it for you

5 poems·Since August 2015

I'm Michelle, 17-year-old whom graduated high school a year early. I'm looking to start my life as soon as possible, I have a job and I'm getting promoted shortly, but these minimum wage jobs don't seem to pay too well. My parents don't have the money to pay for my college since I'm first generation. They just want me to work and not attend college, but I'm really looking to get a scholarship to get me started and make it far so I'm posting these poems I made a while back.
