Proud of Myself

I'm proud of myself,

And I know I sound conceited.

I am fighting this battle,

Yet I still haven't beat it.

Proud because I've come this far.

Proud because we all know

That this life is quite hard.

Proud because I have received in the mail,

Three opportunities for scholarships,

So this means I still have not failed.

Yes, it has been rough,

Because she doesn't seem to care.

It's okay, myself being proud is enough.
