second semester
you know that feeling
when you realize that half the school year is gone
and you are no longer a newbie student,
too fresh in your new grade
to take on the title of your year,
but that you truly are a senior?
it happens the January of second semester,
a quaint, harrowing realization that time flies.
course selection rolls around
for the upcoming year,
for the future collection of tired minds
who will take your place.
i will not select my courses the January of second semester,
a quaint, harrowing realization that time flies.
flyers adorn the halls,
searching for minds in want of further extension
but not in need,
advertising meetings of interest,
interviews,
application deadlines.
they ask if i will apply.
i deny their requests the January of second semester,
a quaint, harrowing realization that time flies.
the realization has come upon me that i really, truly am leaving.
growing up.
aging.
time flies.
