This is the beginning of summer, the end of my 7th grade year.
Today my friends and me experienced another year passing.
Most of them cried over the times we had and that we wont be seeing each other for a whole two months.
But I thought, and I realized,
In 5 years we'll be in 12th grade, and we'll be graduating.
Two months isnt that long, but we might not see each other for another 20 years.
Now, that I would cry over for a long time.
My friends mean more to me than anything.
I cant imagine what life would be like without them.
5 years I will be graduating.
I cant even imagine.
My sister done this tonight,
She even made a speech
Even quoted Dr. Seuss himself
" You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. Youre on your own. And you know what you know. You are the guy who'll decide where to go."
Graduate; something I thought I'd never do.
Because Im the only one who never really made it through
I cant go on
Maybe because Im scared
Scared of leaving all my loved ones
Without any fun
They tell me
Im pretty outgoing
But I never really thought
Id be this unknowing
Of how scared I am
To let them go
Im scared to let them really know
My sister helped me through
Most of the year
Without her now
Im lost and I fear
She led me through
She taught me well
I could never tell her how I feel
Shes helped me more than anyone could
I guess Ive even taken how shes stood
Since this is the end
Ive been meaning to say
Goodbye Leigh-Anne, in my heart you will forever stay
