This huge chapter of life finally finished.
This place made me laugh and cry,
But now those times have vanished
And it's now time to finally say goodbye.
I say farewell to classroom walls.
Now I leave your predictable fort
To take part in whatever life installs
And take with me what you have taught.
I bid farewell to our favorite spot.
I will miss the friends that sat here,
And I will miss the crazy memories it begot.
Careless days with the outcome unclear.
Au revoir to lockers, books and exams;
These daily simplicities, now feel significant.
I can tear up my school subject programmes,
All those subject choices now lay silent.
Adios to my teachers from each class.
Probably cheering as I go away;
Most of the time I was a pain in the ass.
New students to teach for another day.
So long to late night study and early wake
And goodbye to my early school bus.
Bye to the heavy bag that caused me backache.
Finally I say farewell to my school status.
I say bye and thanks to students of prime,
Who made this place somewhat fun
And a hellish place at the same time.
Now all we can is that we're done!
Its had its' many times of hate and bliss;
Its also shown to be kind or cruel,
But I know that I will reluctantly miss,
The years that I spent at school.
