Freshman Seminar Fall 17 CRA

Nose-dive

It’s hard to be you

it’s hard to stay true

We always want to be

but somehow parts of us flee

we age, we grow

Some of even go through a glow

We come to school, it goes so slow

Winter comes, we’re covered in snow

So crisp and fresh

Like a new beginning

Perfect timing, hair shining, hotel dining

More like

Their fighting, tears shining, been hiding

There has to be a silver lining

Eat, sleep, Repeat

life is like a treat

We all want things to delete

Make enough friends to form a fleet

I think this monologue is getting offbeat

I didn’t really wanna compete

Growing old is bittersweet

From full of life to petite

You can’t ever retreat

We just have to pray to keep our heartbeat

Let’s us know we’re alive

not here just to survive

Time to live life in overdrive

Time to thrive

Jumping into life & taking control headfirst like a nose-dive
