Off to College

Staring out a large windowThe sun shimmers on her faceA smile shows she’s happyBut the feeling is out of placePhotos lined her bedroom wallShe glanced at every oneA moment captured in a frameOf crazy times and funShe has to leave it all behindTo make it on her ownOff to a universitySo far away from homeAbout her last four years of lifeEach day had no regretsSchool memories so bold and clearHow could she ever forget?But what about the plans and friendsThey all had made somehowWould everyone still be the sameWhen they meet ten years from now?So she stared right out that windowAnd she thought and thought some moreUntil a thought popped into her mindMaking seconds seem like moreDon’t be sad because it’s overFeel it and let it goEach moment is a part of youYou’ll take wherever you go
