In my cap in gown,
I sit here thinking to myself
Wondering where did the time go?
Looking around at everyone that looks just like me,
Looking at my old friends,
And I say to my self,
Why did I waste my life like I did?
I knew I would have to grow up
But not this soon,
Not today,
Not now.
I still want to be the little kid,
The kid that plays in sandboxes,
Gets In trouble,
Breaks things,
But now I have to grow up; its time.
Its time for me to walk my final steps in childhood and
Into adulthood,
Into the life where I am in charge of my choices;



i wrote this poem right around graduation time back in 2006, for my English creative writing exam.

Yet dont forget the child in you at times does need to play,,
I so love sandboxes.....

Very nice
