    My College Graduation

    After years, the day is finally here
    At 22, I had started my long voyage
    Not knowing what to expect, I was in fear
    The road seemed endless, with long days and nights ahead
    But with support behind me, they cheered for me

    After years, the day is finally here
    At 23, I was passing my way through classes
    Being advanced, I would complete it sooner than later, dear
    Between constant death, moving, heartbreak, and more
    I didn’t know how to handle life’s hardships while full-time

    After years, the day is finally here
    At 24, things were tough, but I carried on
    Letting God and Jesus guide my way, my path became clear
    I worked so hard but was doing excellent
    Through the tears, I toughed my way through without giving up

    After years, the day is finally here
    At 25, my heart and brain were extremely exhausted
    My dedication and sweetness to everyone was endear
    Onward and upward, a lot of growing and healing was made
    Step by step, I got closer and was filled with promise and hope

    After years, the day is finally here
    At 26, I felt new as a new path began to unfold
    While I spread my wings as my new chapter was all clear
    I had support behind my back from family, friends, and my lover
    On December 14th, I was filled with joy, hearing cheers, laughter, and glory

    • Alexcia, congratulations on your graduation! I remember feeling depleted, overwhelmed, wired, and highly caffeinated right before I finished college. Graduating college is no easy feat, so it is amazing that you’ve made it! I wish you all the success and happiness in your future. Thank you for sharing your story!

      • Hi there, thank you so much! Yeah, I definitely dealt with a lot and a ton of mixed feelings; ultimately, it was exhausting. However, I’m glad that I’m done and graduated. Thank you again for the kind words, it means a lot.
