it's really over.
so graduation was thursday night. i cant even describe all the feelings and emotions going through my head during that hour and a half. anxiety, fear, love, appreciation... so much more. I don't deal well with change.
Today i was cleaning my room and found so many things from high school. I started putting everything into a big clear box, thinking that I wouldn't be able to fill it. i just started finding things and tossing them in there, remembering so many things over the past 4 years. and before i knew it, the box was full. from pictures to my latin shirt to corsages from dances and proms to my diploma to yellow rose petals to graduation cards... so many things spanning the past 4 years were in there. and as i placed it on a shelf in my closet, i couldn't help but think that a huge part of my life was over, and it will never return. putting that box on that shelf was like putting my life on that shelf, because now i am starting over. and all i have now are the memories...
I hold on to this life I found.
And you say we're too young, but maybe you're too old to remember
And I try to pretend but I just feel it when we're together
And if you don't believe me, you never really knew us
You never really knew
You and I, packin' up my room, we feel alright
Who's to say we won't stay together?
Who's to say we aren't getting stronger?
Who's to say I can't live without you?
Who are they anyway? Anyway they don't know.
