Leaving - Blog Posts

1 year ago

I wrote this poem at breakfast so here it goes

Farewell, until we meet again:

Why must you give me such mixed emotions?

You're the source of some of my greatest hurt

The source of some of my worst decisions

But my heart aches to think of leaving

Maybe I love the side effects, the friends

Memories and joy that were made with you

Maybe that's why my soul cries to see it end

Despite all the pain I've endured here

Maybe I started to think of you as home

I laid my head here for a whole year

That certainly has an effect of its own

In spite of the pain many of those nights bore

Maybe I won't miss the brick laden streets

Which I walked everyday to classes and such

Maybe I won't miss it in favor of the heat

Way back home, but I'm far from certain

Maybe I'll come back and wash the blood

Of poor decisions with the water of the good

And then only the good ones will flood

My mind, but this year's taught me not to guess
