An Amazing Human-being

Don’t forget you are still amazing

No matter what you get or where you go 

The feeling of the hole in your stomach, 

The jitters and anxiety will all be over


Even though the time is getting closer,

I know you won’t have to worry about a thing

You have always proved yourself

So I already know the results


I am right beside you feeling the same tension

Both our hearts almost dropped as it finally loaded

The two of us screaming on an emotional roller coaster ride

The excitement, the disappointment, the disbelief 

All of it was unreal 


I know you seemed like you didn’t care

On the inside you were actually boiling weren’t you

The bright side is you’ll be with most of your friends 

At least you won’t have to separate after graduation


I told you there wasn’t a thing to worry about

Even though it wasn’t expected there is still a chance

Just don’t give up hope

There’s always light at the end of the tunnel

The odds are still in your favor 


This will all be a blur 

Everywhere you go, success follows

No matter which path you take 

I will always be there just so you know

You may not have gotten to your first choice yet

But don’t let go of the rope so soon

You have to keep climbing to the top 

And to no surprise all your hard work will pay off


You are still amazing

No matter where you go or what you choose

I expect nothing less of you, my little sister
