Graduation
The day is young and the night is still
The dreams in our hearts we must fulfill.
As time goes by we stop and stare
Wondering how each one of us will fare.
The reality of growing up doesn’t quite make sense
Until we are forced to provide our own defense.
Such ambiguous thoughts are provoked at first glance,
Where the mind plays tricks on those in a university trance.
The day is young and the night is still
The dreams in our hearts we must fulfill.
One last assembly to conclude it all,
Quickly time has passed since the time we’re enthralled.
With a future ahead and a past behind us,
We take a new step onto the real world bus.
If it weren’t for the people who have helped along the way,
You probably wouldnt’t have made it here today.
The day is young and the night is still
The dreams in our hearts we must fulfill.
So here we are leaving each other behind,
The friendships made have been intertwined.
I leave you now with a phrase of insight,
Look out for each other, in the day and at night.
