Walking Via School

Walking via the street where school lies,
Had a sudden stop at the entrance gate.
I closed my eyes to memorize the crowd,
To hear the noise of talking and of vehicles.

It was silent when I opened my eyes again,
I was blind, can't see my friends as same.
The gate just opened and called me to step in,
But my foot stepped back and I moved away.

"We all were thrown into the school,
To build and make the best future.
Instead, we all created best past.

Keep the future in your mind, 
And present when you breathe,
But past in your heart."
