Cant let go
I reach over
Maybe for the last time
Knowing it could be the last

Beautifully complex
Yet seemingly simple
It flows from fingers and mouths
It flows from metal and wood
It floats on the breeze
Swaying the leaves in the trees
A bow on a string

Excellent sports records
Excellent leadership qualities.
Excellent personality.

melting over glimpses of you
Wishing I could,
stuck with I can’t
because of nerves
that refuse to say goodbye.
Heart is obsessed,

sometime after school ended
I wanted to stay for the whole time
I brought snacks for everyone
bagel chips and hummus
