(I will skip the sacrifices for a while. This was long overdue.
In March, my friend Michelle was accepted to the prestigious Oberlin Conservatory, in Ohio. God has blessed her with an unique talent of singing, and she really deserved to go there. When I saw a BBQ/going away event on May for her –she wasn’t the only one with a party, though-, I decided to write this on Art 1, on a B-day. I did my work though!
I was eager to show it to her, yet she wouldn’t be in school on the last day of school for seniors. I gave a copy to my friend Kelly, the first person I knew on High Point. I don’t know if I had spares! The plan was to show it and tag all the seniors I could tag -naively- for graduation, two weeks later…
But for certain events, I believe this is time to unveil it…)
I just have no chance but to let my guard down
It seems you are headed to a bright start
Please remember to look your name at the sighting of the starts
You’re going away to a higher place
You’re leaving us to follow your dreams
Don’t worry about us, we’ll be okay
We’ll keep moving on our ways
You’re going away to a higher place
You’re leaving us to move this planet up
Don’t worry about me, I’m safe in this life
I’m filled with sorrow, it’ll turn to dance
I remember when I came to the land of the free
Thought that no one would’ve known my name
But God knows that I needed some support
You will leave, don’t’ worry, I’ll find some like minds
My heart is wounded
I’ll help you pack your bags
My heart is wounded
God bless you in this life
