It's been so long Yet not enough We've come so far Yet we've got so far To go The journey ahead Is full of twists and turns Forks and bends But I trust That through it all These ties will hold I still remember The six years that changed me Trained me To be something That I wasn't Was quickly undone In the seventh year A new year We shall count from one With the weight of the mould I felt lost and unsure In this place of light And warmth And this new home With an amazing family New ties quickly formed And with the mould disintegrating, I was free... It was YOU Who taught me There's no harm shining; Being proud of what I have It was YOU Who taught me Just give all you've got That There's no need to hide or with hold It was You Who taught me That history could Last It was You Who taught me To just be; Take everything with a smile brightly And It was You Who unlocked That locked door I kept shut so tightly in those six years Trickling light into that dark, closed room Thank you all For these two years You've helped me find Myself Not the old one, Not the one that was Buried Squished and Lost But you've all helped me find A unique New Me And as I lay here Staring at these bracelets I can't help but feel Wistful That it's all going to be Over *The smiles The laughter The undeniable stupidity Tears All those memories All those things We went through Together* That we're all going In different ways And alas, I shed a single tear For what the future holds, I cannot fathom And there are mixed feelings Of apprehension and fear But at least these ties will hold They will have to Over long distance And all Because I can't ever Bear to part With all of you Any of you Ever Despite all these Changes
