graduation, set them free
to discover who they'll
one day be

caps with tassels of red
or white, smiles that
shimmer and radiate bright

rings with names, years and gems
rest on the fingers of those in
columns of two

glossy diplomas embossed
with pride, words of achievement
heads held high

cards of congratulations from
friends and family, words of
encouragement written down

snap a shot with him then with her
in a few years this day will become
a happy blur

beaming parents whistle and roar
signs and homemade banners
rooting for #50, 7, 69 and 44

hugs, kisses, a final cheer
soon will be remembered
in yesteryear

graduation, set them free
to discover who they'll
one day be

We are finally done with those twelve long years,
it has been a wild ride filled with smiles and tears.
This chapter has ended, but this story has just begun
so let's enjoy ourselves before college and just have some fun.
This is the true beginning of this story called life
the story filled with mystery, happiness, husbands and wives.
We are all grown up and have shined in the light,
we have conquered all of the challenges and showed them our might.
We have an adventure ahead of us filled with mistakes and success,
so let's be excited for the mystery and be simply our best.

We were very cute
the way we did those couple-y things

those wonderfully cliche couple-y things

We were very mature
the way we talked about those things

those big important things

We were very close
when we did those other things

those perfectly sweaty things

I was very sad
when you commenced those leaving things

those "but it's midnight" leaving things

I like our things
even the not so perfect things
-"This"-
I don't want our things
to change

So
Please
Stay.

Let your soul bleed
let the words that are your everything
be heard by a thousand enemies
put down change for them to read
explain how you are not so different,
or better yet,
explain to them how different you are

Let your soul bleed
let every piece of every microscope thing
be felt inside the core of every humans being...

Let the words pour through you,
like never before
let the fire from your most passionate desires
be heard by a thousand minds you have inspired


Let your soul bleed....

Let your heart scream....

Let your self have everything you need...


Breathe


Because a writer, never dies..
through their fingertips they have an instant copyright
and with love as the only motive they accept life is passing by
but if they write their words in blood they live an eternal life
because she replied how forever was at least worth a try..

You will never die....

Your soul is something that can always stay alive...

You may loose your body, but not your essence of life...


scream


No one ever lied. No one ever said it would be easy ..
they all said it would be hard, and whispered confusing
but they gave you the tools, that some day you would use
now its your job to tighten any screws coming loose

**Happiness is a way of life...you choose...
