Responsibilities
Going to school is one thing
Homework makes it harder
The tests come stronger
Succeeding is another
These are my responsibilities
Hearing the same voices over and over
With the same words and the same thoughts
“You should never fail” it always says
“I will not” is what I always say
These are my responsibilities
Trying hard to live up to my society
Trying hard to please my family
Trying hard to live up to what they expect me to be
Trying hard to make a right path and
Be a role model to the younger ones who come after me
These again are my responsibilities
One thing I know is that I am human
I will fail, succeed and fail again
I also know that, when I fail,
I will rise up and try harder
Again, again and again
Because that is life and because
These especially are my responsibilities.
