Graduation Day

Five years ago I walked through those gates
My stomach felt as if I was about to break 
Little did I know that I'd never want to go
But here I am crying on this very special day 
The people I've encountered are engraved for a lifetime
Some may differ and say they'll soon leave my mind 
The laughter and games, I'll forever appreciate
Jeez, I wanna stop crying it's Graduation day!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
