so I hate goodbyes
but part of me
does wish to say farewell
to this place
this house that allowed
me to live there
more than allowed
wanted me to be there
it seems that things
have changed more
than with just me
it seems that opinions
have changed
to multiple degree
all said I was in
8 said I was unfit
at the current time

I say so long once more
to the person I am today
and welcome the person
that I am becoming
the people I will keep
and not leave behind
will continue
to help me grow
but then again
as will the people who
I leave behind

I guess the moral is
all things have changed
and therefore grown
so all is well

light in the dark
color in the world of black & white
heat in the baren cold
always hope
always love
always Alex
