There has been a lot going on in my life. Its come down to the point where its forcing me to drop out of high school. It all finally hit me on my birthday when I wrote this in class.



Today.

Today I turn 18

Today i realize my hopes and dreams are crushed.

This day i walk away from this school permanently.

Today I realize I could fight no longer.

Today I was robbed of my education

Today I realize...

I am weak.

There are other schools Talyn and even other avenues to education and a whole life time to pursue your dreams. You have the gift of youth, don't waste it. You are a Pisces like myself and sometimes we think we are week but often discover great strength within ourselves. Read some of Robert Jordan's poems (also a Pisces). Happy belated Birthday.
