This poem is dedicated to all the people I have met during my college life. Someone once told me that college life is the best part of our lives. All I want to say to you all is……. thanks a lot for proving that someone right.
4 years ago all of this started
An endless journey it seemed
But slowly it shifted its colors
From an ominous black to a sweet lime-green.
It was hard at first, wasn’t it?
To start to mingle in the crowd
Some were too shy to speak up
And some were simply too proud.
But then we got to know each other
And everything seemed so easy
It was like having the thrill of a roller-coaster
Without the feeling to get dizzy.
Then the trust slowly started to build
We knew that when the moment came
We could count on the ones around us
To share with us the blame.
Then we started hanging out
And partying quite a lot
All shyness, pride and ego
Thankfully, everything was soon lost.
We met many people along the path
And befriended some of them
People we knew we could hug and cry
When nothing seemed the same.
There came times when our unity and strength
Everything was fiercely tested
But be it proxy, cheating or just bunking a class
Everyone was always interested.
But today we all stand at crossroads
As everything is about to end
We will all go separate ways
But these memories will always remain.
Thinking about all this stuff I said
I hang my head in regret
The only thing that I know for sure is
None of this I can ever forget.
That’s why I want to thank you all
For making my journey the way it’s been
And most importantly for shifting its color
From an ominous black to a sweet lime-green.
