I sit in my dorm room,
Feeling so alone,
Missing my family, and
My home.
The books are piled high, and
The work never ends,
But I push through it all,
For the future, I intend.
I miss the sound of laughter, and
The warmth of a hug,
But I know I must keep going, and
Study with all my might.
For one day, I'll see them again,
My family and my friends, and
I'll look back on this time,
As a lesson that never ends.
So I'll keep working hard,
Through the late nights and the tears,
For I know my family is proud, and
They'll always be near.
