5 A.M.
The alarm clock goes off
like a fire alarm
waking me from my dream state.
I stumble through the labyrinth
gathering my stuff and getting dressed.
A Droplet - A Concoction of BrineFlows from the Foreboding;A Hansel of DistressA Signal of Fear.Swivels and SwervesCreeping and CrawlingClink Clank against each StrandDripping from Down Under;
Their little girl’s grown
And the years have progressed-
I’ve been tested, questioned, and asked to express
What I feel and how I should react
And now it’s time for the second act-
We slice our lives down to 500 words,
--Words which can't begin to describe us,
Hoping for acceptance to write more words,
--Words which will never be fully appreciated.
We freely offer our 500 words,
I've worked my whole life
just to prove my worth.
I've pushed myself,
skipped parties to study.
Now is the moment of truth.
The moment where the next four years
of my life will be spent.
You see a Face,
A Statistic
A Number
Another name on a list.
But I am MORE
-A Person.
Dear Applicant,
In no more than 250 words,
please tell us what makes you brilliant,
and don’t make the all too common mistake of sounding arrogant
Pre-college life kind of sucks
Applying to scholarships, trying to get a thousand bucks
ACT/SAT is never fun
What if my ACT comes out as a 31?
I mean, I need that 32 for money to Wheaton!
