Graduation
Long, milky fingers wave at
saddened smiles
And tears laced with black, drip down
painted faces
This is our goodbye
This is our farewell
A thundering sky spits acid at us
and it's melancholy rays melt in with my own bleak acid
protruding from my swollen, red eyes
Heavy feet pound hot pavement
each sound resounding in departure
Camera flashes and video tapes rolling
memories soon to be forgotten
But I will never forget
For each tear I cry
And "I love you" is said
For each step away
A new pathway ahead.
Goodbye.
