Unpaid Hope, Minimum Wage Dreams
by Jemar SouzaI’m grateful
For my education,But,
Not if I can’t pay for it.I’m striving
For success.But,
Do I have to slave for it?Unpaid internships,
Minimum wage jobs.Why did I get into this?
Will it ever stop?No,
Will things ever start?
I still feel it in my heart.But my mind,
At times
JustLaughs,
“Give it up
And
Pass.” -Pass on every dream,
Because every dream I have
Really doesn’t mean a thing…Until they start
PayingMe.
