I Promised

I know a lot of things happened since then, but awhile ago I promised that I'd put this up. (It was somewhere in this entry)

Good Times
(author unknown at the moment)

So long, So soon, So Short
Goodbye
For you were away
Let's hope not too long

Such a distance we have
So far away
If I could bring us all closer
I would do so today

How we've changed
How we've aged
How we've grown and matured
And words that are no passed
Are now heard

From top to bottom
Things are still the same
Good friends
Good times
Good thoughts
Good days

All we have to hold on to
Are the words
The impressions
The new things we've learned
The good times
A smile or two
And the love between us all
Which we have truthfully earned

So amongst our journeys
And numerous tasks that we do
please look back
And remember this too

Good times
Good friends
Good thoughts
Good days
It's all we have as we part our ways.

I suppose it's comforting to think that I'm not the only one feeling a tish bit nostalgic about this?

I've been reading. I suppose I just contemplated and forgot to comment. It seems like you've been going through a rough patch but that you're coming out stronger. I think as long as you remember who you are and don't let your heart harden than it's ok to be a little tougher. You're a very strong, smart, and talented person and life will start treating you that way soon I'm sure. Has anything good been going on?

That was a beautiful poem thank you for sharing it. I'm know that you are not alone in feeling that way.

lots of good things have been going on, actually.

I'm about to graduate high school, which is REALLY exciting. I need a fresh start somewhere new.

I've also rekindled a friendship that was dwindling due to circumstances. We talked about it for a long time last friday night and now we're on a lovely path of friendship and it's nice. Really nice.

Although a lot of things are ending in my life (high school, ensembles, etc. etc.) there's also the promise of something new.

I am happy with things for the time. :)
