i flipped through my secondary school stuffs and i found this graduation poem i found in sec 2.
so now i shall dedicate this to my class DEWT 01 =)
Moving on and meeting new people
Seems like the most interesting thing
New buddies, new galpals
A whole new world to explore
At first, tears neer came and overflowed
All there was was excitement
Laughter, amazement and gladness
For the final year in high school's about to be uncovered
But during the last days, things changed
Memories and good times of the past shone
Clouded out minds as we thought of leaving
While all the emotions altogether brewed
All of a sudden, tear-floods overflowed, unmanageable
Rivers of crystalline tears mixed with sobs
Reminiscing the past seemed to be hard
To grasp the thought was unbearable
"Why do I cry?", I asked.
I always wanted to leave. didn't I?
"Can't wait to get out of here" were my initial words
But why and why now are my questions
Sadness creeps in and heart full of sorrow
As i sat with clouded eyes, still crying.
Nothing will be lost, I thought
All's well. I'll look forward to tomorrow
All of these are foolish things to say
Foolish... fooling myself is what I'm doing.
All my friends and teachers that I've known
Cannot be replaced in any way
Sure, new experiences will come.
But will these outshine the old ones?
Love and understanding have grown for three years
Hard to comprehend why it's all ending
Life goes on, they say.
But now all I want is life to be as it is
Joy fills my heart in this place
Nothing more to ask for, I prayed.
Goodbye.. goodbye... final goodbye
In these last few days of woe and sorrow
Tears mixed with laughter echoes through in the halls
As the cover closes in the final days of this chapter
