Graduation (too soon, yet not soon enough)

That 12 yr old you made cry
will cry again today.
She will walk up that stage
and scan the crowd,
(knowing but still hoping)
and she'll cry.

Crying the tears
not because she's hurt
because it's all come to an end,
and not at all the way she imagined.

I'll miss you,
your annoying voicemail,
even how you make me cry,
because for me it's always been you
and now it's time to say goodbye.

You don't make promises that you can't keep,
but I promise you this,
you will always be with me.

Graduation (too soon, yet not soon enough)

Goodbye.

i liked the updated one better well done...keep writing

when you live you begin to die
when you die memories of you life lives in others
when memories of you begin to fade
you truly begin to die
