Being me is good enough

My name is Josh, not Joshua.

I prefer the first however

 the other was given  at birth.

I am respectful, polite everyone agrees

My goals include college in pursuit of degrees.

I found myself in my teens,

unlike everyone else, so it seems.

I am an artist , dreamer and work hard you should know

My GPA is high as my test scores will show.

CCA  High School has allowed me to flourish and not care

even though unlike most boys I color my hair.

Painting, drawing becoming fluent in Spanish and

being myself even though some may say, not mannish.

I value education and a degree I hope to receive

financial  help I am searching for while I continue to be me.
