Goodbye

Here I sit in my cap and gown, with not a smile but a sad, sad 
frown.
                               It's a happy, still I cry for all the years that have flown on by.
                            Memories I hold inside my head, they'll never leave until I'm dead.
                            Friends I hold inside my heart, friendships that last and never part.
                            All of my feelings rushed to the surface ready to explode.
                               Love, sadness, being happy and scared all at once.
                                   I know I'm making a big step into the future.
                                I'm growing, and changing and saying goodbye.
