You said I have a future.

You said I’d be okay.

You said I’d find the cure for cancer.

You’re encouraging that way.

You said I’d find an animal,

an orphan, and I’d save it.

You’ve said there’s something for me somewhere

and that you just believe it.

So thank you for being there

when I felt no one else was.

I pray you do the same

for other students who are where I was.
