Emily Mathews Poet Rhyme

Your Life Has Just Begun

Four years of high school,
everything seems so cool. 
Not thinking of how everything goes so quick,
the thought of leaving makes you feel sick.
from the start of it all,
you start to bawl.
Not ready to go
you have to let everyone know,
how thankful you are
for getting this far.
You look down
and see your gown
as green as can be
it’s time to be set free.
You hear Dr. Ladd call your name,
your mom’s smile doesn’t look the same.
She smiles with tears in her eyes,
she’s afraid of  goodbyes,
as you walk away for college.
You then begin to acknowledge
adulting is hard,
but you won’t be scarred!
With your Diploma in hand,
everything is just as planned.
You start to feel like a man,
your life just began.
