One
door closes…Another Opens
By Andrew Hess
Is it weird to be sad?
This road has finally ended.
It’s a joyous thought;
Yet brings tears to my eyes.
Those I’ve encountered;
Will slowly fade;
Making room for newer ones;
Embracing the new associates.
But long and behold;
They are never gone forever.
They will remain like the others;
Never truly departing from my life.
Instead they will merely visit;
Resurface when it’s their time.
Rekindle the friendships;
Living a new life together.
Then why so sad?
Am I afraid of the changes?
The idea of starting something new;
Has me feeling exhilarated.
In my heart;
I know I’m ready.
I can face the challenges;
That lay ahead.
Each day;
Each step;
Has me closer to my dreams;
Slowly making them a reality.
