G raduation means you’re ready and going away.
R eally, I would much rather that you choose to stay.
A ll eighteen years have skipped by me so fast.
D o you remember the times I treasure from the past?
U are beautiful, accomplished and amazingly wise…
A s you walk, this thought dawned on me with such surprise.
T hough you’re clearly equipped, I fear I’m not prepared.
I know, from a breaking heart, I will not be spared.
O n you march anyway, like your sister before.
N ew people, new places… new tears on the floor
