(A poem I wrote when everyone starting to leave for college in August)
Roses are red
Violets are blue.
When you leave,
I don’t know what I’ll do.
We’ve grown so close,
You’re my best friend.
I just don’t want to feel
Like this is the end.
Remember me
when you go away.
Call me up
and say it’s okay.
You mean so much.
You can’t leave now!
I have to let go
But I don’t know how.
When you come back,
We’ll build a snowman!
Or if you prefer,
WE’ll do the can-can.
Okay this is it.
I guess I must try.
It’s time to go,
But this is not goodbye.
