I always try to do my best ??

I always try to do my best.
I get the grades that
you want me to.

I do my homework
as soon as I get home.
I come right home
right after school.
I don't go to parties,
but stay home
and just study.

I have no social life
because my main goal in life,
is just to make you proud of me.

I love you dearly,
because you saved my life,
when you adopted me
16 years ago.

If you hadn't adopted me,
who knows where I'd be.
So, yes, you did save me,
and I am truly grateful to thee.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A poem in progress, about my mother and how, the last few days, it's been like nothing I do is good enough.

I

completely understand, when I was in school I never did my homework. I dropped out of high school after missing 200 days of class, I got tired of sitting in ISS (in school suspension).
