One Last Bell

Lines composed above a fountain

Sometimes the hardest thing to do
Is simply say goodbye
It's a commonly known truth
Yet we pretend that it's a lie

And as a time falls through the sieve
And memories unwind
It's not too hard to take a leave
But hard to leave behind

And so I sit in superstition
Ending with a shower
Some say bye and some good luck
I go. Guided by my higher power

------

Said my goodbyes to the university today. Wandered the campus listening to the bells reminiscing and taking it all in.

  1. Yay, a poem!

    You mixed up 'it's' and 'its' twice, but I forgive you since you have the jitters and since you're not going to grad school for english anyway.

    Miss u already! :'(

  2. Considering I composed it on my cell phone, I'd like to think I'm allowed a mistake or two.
