Dear college student

You got this

You have the brains to make it

You’ve made it this far

And I know you’re struggling to make it through

Like everything is against you

And no matter how hard you try obstacles do their best to knock you down

But you must pick yourself up because you’re not done

That degree is there at the end of the stage

Waiting for your grasp

And when you flip that tassel

You can finally say

I did it.
