Graduation

It’s coming to a close, A chapter I’ve revisited from beginning to end, In my mind all the moments Like white sheets of paper in freefall No longer bound in a book. I can’t catch them. Nor I contain them. They fly like swallows They fall like snow. Some, shine more brightly before others, Lights aloft in a dark velvet sky. You and I Look up from below At those crystal moments. See, there now. See, thereafter, When you’re miles away, In a brand new place, When we start a new chapter.
