Maya

Goodbye But the significance of your departure has not eluded me Throughout my 4 years I have listened to your poetry It has guided me to be a stronger woman With that I also say goodbye to High School Goodbye Overly-sensitive girls who can't take a joke Goodbye Attention seeking people who manipulate others Goodbye Boys who can't stop talking about their penis Goodbye Rude teenagers who are too self-absorbed Goodbye My collection of friends I have come to love Goodbye Witty, immature remarks Goodbye Hopes of being asked in front of the whole school Goodbye Confused adolescence Goodbye High school You will be missed But we must part I will not miss your students I will miss your intellectuals Goodbye Maya Angelou How I have loved you from afar
