Get By Poem by Holly Somer

Waking up in the morning
After sleeping through my alarm
Getting looks from teachers
Shrug your shoulders and smile
It's ok what your doing is great
It can give you a good impression upon your mates
They don't think your giving all
But your doing just enough to get by

Not going over the top
Just doing what your told
Using what you can
No matter good or bad
Keeping your life on medium
Then going up to the high
