Closure: A Senior’s Take On the End of the School Year
April 23, 2020
Closure
By Maegan Davis
My memories are fading fast
But there’s one thing I know
Never had the chance to say goodbye,
Had to teach myself to grow
Want to move my tassel to the left
But i’ll never get the chance
Find my heart is filled with music
But i’m missing my last dance
Six feet apart is a big price to pay
When closure is on the line
And my childhood is butchered now
But “honestly i’m fine”
I miss the high pitch of the bell
Because suddenly time seems hidden
I never thought i’d see the day
When home turns into prison
Class of 2020 always said
That this would be our year
And just as fast as this year came
It also disappeared
I guess it’s just part of growing up
Learning life isn’t always fair
And finding new ways to move on
When your heart is stuck elsewhere
So here’s to growing up,
Getting old, and moving on
Here’s to an unknown future
Now that our high school days are gone
