.The Final Goodbye.

As we walk out of the gate and for the last glimpse we turn,

we see the school building, become nostalgic and our stomachs churn

The flashbacks of the best time of our lives we get,

we leave this place, without any regret

In infant, when we were 2.5 feet tall,

breakage of crayons seemed like a problem biggest of all

Growing over the alphabets A B and C,

we learnt there were other things beyond crayons, that we had to foresee

Junior year was when we saw the major ups and downs,

we acquired the reasons for our little frowns

As emotions like curiosity, jealousy, stupidity, stress, anxiety seemed true,

and many more countless feelings that we could never construe

The idiotic fights we had, when our egos clashed,

we saw our desires of being with the 'hottie' getting smashed

The stupid stuff we said,

and how we watched the lies spread 

As the 'popular' ones got all the attention,

the funkier ones got the detention

The seemingly endless fun we had, making fun of peers and teachers who taught,

without a reason, many a times among ourselves we fought



As we walk out ..!

The lonesome time we spent,

when the 'true' friends betrayed, our trust took a dent

Dealing with the pain, we pulled ourselves together,

learnt that not everyone can be our friend forever

Then senior year was where things really matter,

we've built so many bonds just to watch them shatter.

As we walk down the abandoned corridors,

we realize we are strong enough to be our own anchors

And in front of us, an empty school building stands,

life turned out exactly opposite to what we had planned

Just a black cap and gown and a football field to cross,

some friendships to keep and some at a loss

And so we leave this place, some good and some bad memories we keep,

towards the life, we take a huge leap

As we go down the path of our design,

memories of the past fourteen years will intertwine

It’s the end of one road and the start of a new one,

fourteen long years, can’t believe that we're done

Don't hold back the tears, feel free to cry,

It is after all, our final goodbye ..
