I remember the first day of middle school 

“It will go by fast, have fun” 


I think about the good memories back then 

And think to myself how fast it's gone by 

I remember it like it was just yesterday 


I blinked and it all went by 

The year has come 

Senior year is now here


I look around at the kids I have seen my whole life and think 

What happened? 


We are all so different now from what it seems to be just yesterday 

Now is the time we become our own selves 

Take pride in who we are and who we are not 


I've always thought about the day we all graduate and see each other for the last time 

I've always pushed it off and told myself I don't have to worry about it for awhile


The time has come

The time where we have our lasts


Last first day of highschool 

Last football game 

Last homecoming dance 


It is now time 

It is time to say goodbye 

It is time to leave something good to have something even better
