Bye Katie!

The end is coming
It’s something I fear
The end is coming
I can feel it near

The summer bell will ring
And the school halls will fill
The inevitable will happen
I know it will

For friends will say goodbye
Hug and say see you next year
But I know my end has come
I can feel it creeping up near

Because I know that my fears are confirmed
And unlike others who hug and say goodbye
I know my depart from someone will be forever
I know this as I know the blue of the sky

She will never come back
Has a new life to live
But this is not her fault
So thus I must forgive

And as the new year will come
The people laugh to be reunited
As I watch and I morn
My days have been benighted

Author notes

This is about a very good freind of mine moving away to a different place and school.  This is dedicated to her.  Hope you have fun at your new school Katie!

    This poem definitely expressed a lot of emotion. It's a hard situation when one of your best friends is moving. But try not to worry about it too much because I'm sure you two will remain friends through it all. It seems like both of you value your friendship very much judging by your poem and her comment on it and it will all work out in the end. This is a great piece. Keep up the wonderful writing!

    OMB SPY! How did I manage to pass this over?!? It's so sweet! Goodness gracious... You even used my favorite color for the words! Aw... you're too sweet! Geez, I REALLY don't want to go to this school... but we'll still be friends and we can still hang out! If he's not too mad, maybe my dad will let you come to the Frio River with us this summer. There'll be plenty of room for you! Anyway... geez, this is sssoooo sweet... I luv ya Spy!

    Very sad and very good. I can relate to this except from the view of the person leaving. I'm moving to another state and today was my last day of skool. :-( Great Write!!!!

    aw, that's so sad..
    Well, it always hurts to have friends move away. I myself have several friends who have graduated or are just moving. (I'll miss them!!!)
    Anyways, i can relate. I enjoyed the poem, good flow...
    Hug!

    I just had to read this because my name is Katie (my nickname that is.)
    This is good, though sad.
    I hope that your friendship goes on even after this parting.
    Katie
