Musing on graduation...

some say 
they are
the best years
of our lives


they love
the system


the plastic ones 
and the lovers 
of all things
educational


some will dwell
after we leave


they will
return to these
old brick walls
they will
feel sorrow
and wish 
for the "glory days"


when i
finish
i will fly 
out those
doors


i will go places
i will do things
i will become
something more


i may visit...


but i will not
wish 
to 
go 
back


so for now
i will wait


i will finish, 
then...




i'm outta here.
