With the final keystroke
I was done with another semester
the final click of a mouse
showed it was finally over

A bittersweet ending
second to last down
final to start

and when it's done
life will take me where I belong
out of this town
and finally allowing me
to make a new life

One more semester
One more paper needed
One more sleepless night
One more goodbye

I'm almost free
and I am both terrified
and excited
for a new journey

to begin.
