Mother,
Father,
Son,
Daughter,
Brother,
Sister,
The enemies of my irritating blisters
Best Friend,
Acquaintance,
Mutualness,
Hatred,
Friendship,
Relationship,
The bonds of one or none.
My homies
Your group
My brethren
Your stoop
Our moments
Your breath
Our memories
In your steps
My heavy heart
Against your weighted tears
Has come to take part
Of our graduating peers
Guide of our feet
Through the fanfare of a musical fleet
Take my hand
And we'll take a long-lasting congratulated stand
Hold the applause, awestruck audience!
Hold your breath, strong veterans!
Be the remainder of the cheering to come,
Be the excess of what's left undone.
Revolutionize the congratulated
Mourn over the graduated
Smile for the new beginning
Frown for the upcoming ending
Move out! Soldiers of knowledge!
Or stay in with the crew
Keep education as beautiful as art
Or stay at home, with nothing to do
Take my eyes and see tomorrow's weather
Take my heart and see the future's next love
Give back the report whose weight equals a feather
So that I can give back the heavenly dove
Beast - I seek none
Humans - Seek never
The beast wishes to tame me
But not forever
Climb the mountains
Walk the endless lands
Swim the seas
Fly through the glanceless amounts of sands
Pray for reunification
Wish for eternity
Meditate on blessings
Hope for purification
Set your expectations
High or low
Learn that acceptance is also denial
For the ones who never know
Leave what you can
Bring what you must
But do not leave something that means a lot
But also do not bring something out of lust
Middle school to high school
High school to college
College to life
Is the transition of your personal strife
You may leave each other here
Because of your dreams
Or you can stay together
Because of your love
You can decide whether or not you proceed
Towards the diploma or towards eternity
Tomorrow - Or when the day comes
Meet me at the dock near the mist
Where we can stand above yesterday
And never forget our bliss.
Dance with me under the dark canopy
Where the constellations sparkle clear
This is where you can hold yourself
Hold your beliefs and the ones you love dear.
