High Hopes

I see my classmates falling behind,

Haters and fakers I will always decline.

Few try to pull me down,

From sunrise to sundown.

I am courageous; I am strong,

I am determined to prove them wrong.

I would fall down if I rest,

And always try to give my best.

I will work hard, yet stay tall,

The moment I slack off will be my downfall.

I have to keep a goal, an achievement in my mind,

While others will try to crush me and grind.

Have to keep high hopes to stay strong,

Lend a hand to one's who cannot leap long.

This isn't just a poem that I ignite,

But also a story of every day I fight.

Fight for right; against the wrong,

Keeping high hopes is the only thing-that'll keep me strong.
