Independent Poem by Bianca Edwards

Honey life's a struggle -
Many things you have to juggle
You're on your own
Many times you'll be alone

Friends will leave you
There are things you'll need to live up to
Dream big
And never give up, trust no one

Never look back
Cause in the past are things we all lack
Trust your heart
Create beautiful art

Laugh and flirt
Look around, stay alert
Stay true to God
Never spread rumors abroad

Live and learn
And a lot of intelligence you will earn
Live independently
Never live arrogantly

Continue on,
Don't turn back
Be resplendent
Be independent
