boys and girls,
of ages alike,
flocking to the school
with no surprise.
meeting friends of old and new
though some sting and bite.
experiencing a new environment around
with no limits and boundaries.

hanging mistletoe,
hoping that it snows.

stay,
indescribable of how much I wanted you to,
i want you right beside me,
forever and always.
the conversations we had
are all beyond description,
we share laughter and sorrow
and in the midst of everything,
we develop friendship and love.
but you are going away,
far from my reach
and all I could do now is to wait,
because patience and time
will bring you back to me again.

shattered into pieces
like jigsaw puzzles
so painful
like a knife through my skin
a bullet to my head
that very moment
darkness reigns
missing pieces hiding from the truth
and the sweet memories we have
are slowing fading away.

girls,
too many in this world,
many different flavors, shapes and sizes,
they may be my friends, close friends, acquaintances or even strangers.
  
but there's this special girl,
adorable and funny,
yet wild and naughty,
but best of all,
she's a sweet little pretty angel.

we learn to speak,
we learn to write,
we learn to count,
that's education.

but everything changes in high school,
education is slowly losing it's true meaning,
we compete for high marks,
we compete for good grades,
just to overcome the fear of getting into 'bad' colleges and universities.

we learn something without knowing the purpose,
we memorize facts without understanding,
that's education of modern world.

it had made it such that,
people are judged on their level of education,
Diploma, Degree, Masters, PhD,
important certificates just to get recognition from the society.

so think about it,
are we really educated or are we just a person,
who everyone calls 'nerd'.
