A celebration, thanking the teachers,

Shaking each hand, walking across the

Stage, seeing the people who influenced us kids,

Into the adults we are now,

While feeling the wind through our hair

And some tears in somes eyes

Thanking the ones who fought for us

The most, the ones who

Used their own time on us,

To get to where we are right now

To the lessons we learned and

The mistakes we won't make again,

Saying our goodbyes to good friends

And saying hello to our future,

As we listen to the last speech,

We get our hats ready for the big throw,

We get butterflies, some being anxious

For the unknown, we walk out the building, watching

Our friends and families scream and shout,

We imagine the new future to come, and say thank you

For everyone who was there for you, all along.
