Endings

As cap and gown come into view,

can't help but feel,

As graduation day seals the deal.

My sister, off to worlds unknown,

Leaving me here, feeling alone.


As she leaves, I struggle to believe.

No more laughs, no more fights,

Just empty halls and lonely nights.

Her laughter gone, her room now bare,

I miss the memories we used to share.


High school's over, and so's our time,

I love how we will always be so intertwined.

Though endings come,

and paths diverge,

I stay in this place and watch her dreams emerge.


So here I write

with tear-streaked cheeks,

As my world shifts and silently creaks.

But in the sadness,

one thing remains true,

no matter how you are doing,

I love you.
