College Dream
Ah, College, sometimes I feel like you are right at hand, yet so far away
I long to walk down your corridors
Feel the atmosphere of accomplishment and endeavors
Be the servant to your will
The prey of your studies
To be proud of being in the warmth of your body
To wake up knowing that I'm privelaged to to be apart of you
Oh, my dear college
I feel like my dreams of you are out of my reach
My hand extends towards the feel of you
My lips murmur your name
My heart beats with anxiety
My eyes can only imagine what
My memories can only hope to gain
My sweet, distant college
How can I even pay for all of what you give me
How can I, the mere spec of your being
Be accepted into your life
My knowledge is barely a fraction of what you are
My value feels even less
I wish to be better, to be apart of the nest of you
Oh, painful college
Your expectations beat me
Your acceptance feels slim
Your value more great to me than anything I can repay
My lovely college
I can only hope to be one with you
I can only work to be accepted by you
I can only attempt to pay for your gold
With the dirt in my palms
By the sweat of my brow
My distant college
Right now you are only but a dream
