At the end of this year, my school (which has been open for 90 years) will be closed due to lack of funding and low enrollment. The students will be split up. The members of my class have formed a deep friendship, and it's going to be hard to say goodbye... Time has past, and way too fast We will soon be parted Because of lack of student funds We’ll all be broken-hearted We’ve been together all our lives From kindergarten to 10th Although we had our share of fights It was time well spent But change has come to our small town And because of some old loon Our school will now be closing We’ll be leaving… all too soon I looked forward to graduating Wearing our robes of maroon But our class is scattered now Parted all too soon We must all adjust to change We must adapt to survive But we will still have our friendship Something that no one can hide We will go our separate ways Like ashes to the wind But someday, we will settle down To where we belong again Until we meet again, my friends I’ll think of you each day I hope you understand me now There’s nothing more to say False gems may shine as brightly as the genuine article, but there are always those who can tell the diffrence. |

This is really sad my friend....I couldn't imagine being separated from those I care about. Good luck with the new school and I hope things work out for the best!  *Krista Knutson* "Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart." -Confucious |

LoveBug~~~That is so sad...When I graduated I hated it thinking I wasnt gonna see my friends anymore...But leaving in the middle of the school year has to be worse...I left my one h.s. in the middle of my sophmore year and I cried cuz I wasnt gonna see all the good friends I made...But then things changed I made some new friends...I wish you the best with your new school... *Falling in love is when you give someone a piece of your heart, falling out of love is when the piece doesnt fit* |

You've expressed the sadness and emotion within this nicely Erica ... it's difficult to be uprooted and change pace, but you've got a great attitude. A very positive feel, and message here, very nicely penned! Best wishes, /Kit |

I thought this poem was sad. Oh well....good job!  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

~*Erica*~ < !signature-->I know how you feel, I have been split from my friends a few times because of boundary changes and it totally sucks and is so unbelievably hard and sad. I know it is hard, but you'll also make new friends. Now if you're like me, your initial reaction was "But I liek the ones I have" you'll meet new people and learn even more stuff. I know its hard but I'm here if you ever need to talk. Just keep your head up and look towards the positive aspects of it. Best of luck my dear x0x0x0x0x0x0x0 ~*~Star~*~ ~*~sMiLe! It MaKeS yOuR bUtT ShInE~*~ [This message has been edited by StarPryncess17 (edited 09-22-2000).] |

"We must all adjust to change We must adapt to survive" Make sure you do that..sad poem but like what Kit said..keep the positive attitude..nice poem... hope your move, and the changes you'll endure won't be too hard.. "Controlling my feelings for too long.... And forcing our darkest souls to unfold... And pushing us into self-destruction...." *~Muse*~ |
