A poem by me, Timothy Lu.

It is no longer enough to have a kind heart.

You must be benevolent.

It is no longer enough to be hard-working.

You must be talented.

It is no longer enough to be either intelligent or athletic.

You must be both.

It is no longer enough to be good.

You must be greater.

It is no longer enough to be yourself.

You must be everything and anything.

It is no longer enough to have a good personality.

You must be good looking.

It is simply no longer enough.

You must not give up hope, though,

Because one day,

You will be enough.
