Unsure

I'm unsure about it,

I’ve walked these halls for years.

If it’s true what they say,

I know it ends in tears.


I’m trying to grasp the concept,

Trying to make sense of what to say.

But nowadays I sit than lay,

My troubled mind affray.


First job new car,

quickest 3 years by far.

Lately it’s been so bizarre, 

I'll keep memories in a jar.


Happiness always comes with a fee,

My heart seems to ruin it for free.

My friends are good to me,

But a life together is no guarantee.


I'm sure about it,

I’ve walked these halls for years. 

And If it’s true what they say,

I’m glad it will end in tears.

My poem Is about leaving highschool or that was the mindset at the time I believe it is also about growing up in general and leaving behind people and places that you are so familiar with. I like my poem I think with time I could make it longer and expand on the theme of letting go but I like the way it turned out. What I want the reader to take away from this is that it is ok to move on, it's not always bad to have change. I like to rhyme in my poems because I think it makes them flow more and I like the way they sound.
