Second Chance (Monologue) by Christy V.
Nothing I did worked and no one understood
I’ve received looks when others realize
I didn’t complete like I should have
This could be my second chance
I can’t move forward without this test
I want to make my family proud
To show my value and learn life skills
After this I’ll finally head to college
And I’ll get the job that works best for me
Here is my second chance to be
Better than who I’ve been
Teachers and tutors want me to succeed
Determined to show what everyone
Needs to know and work with us one-on-one
Even the new teachers and tutors learning
Deserve a chance to improve
I’m not the only one
There are others here
With their stories to tell
They all want a second chance
Even if they don’t show it
I’ll be the one to prove it
