College,
Your suppose to educate us further,
Get us ready for our career to come,
Prepare us for the world.
Your suppose to help us,
But how come your the one thing that tears us down.
I thought i was ready for you,
The studying and late nights,
I told myself everyday i could do this,
But i found out real fast you weren\'t what i thought.
I thought of college as a place of people striving for the same thing,
And teachers eager to help.
I came to find that the teachers barely want to help.
I came to find students hiding away,
Afraid to ask for help,
Teachers turning down students because \"they should know the answer,\"
Students lifeless because they were up till 3am trying to understand.
College is suppose to make us strive to learn,
Teachers are suppose to help us understand,
Their suppose to help us make a career in life,
But instead they gave us depression because we feel as though we\'re not good enough,
But then again teachers are suppose to help us understand,
Not make us fear to put our hand up.
In the end i learned the truth about college,
I may get a career from the work I\'m doing,
But i also got depression because \"i should know the answers,\"
Anxiety from not feeling good enough,
And fear of stepping up and asking for help,
Thank you college for the things you have given me.
