202won

I jumped and cried and jumped some more,
My tears now sat there on the floor.
We hugged, for once, we hugged so long –
The seven of us. Last day gone.

I sniffled and laughed and sniffled some more,
Their voices filling rooms and doors.
We clapped, again, we whooped with glee.
Last day gone, leave happily.

It hit, and hurt, and hit again,
12 years, where'd they go? and when?
Our fruits, accomplished and complete,
Others cried, there's happy feet.

We squeezed and blinked and squeezed again,
A human touch, a human hand,
some eyes reflecting like a pool,
Our last official day of school.
