Favorite Quote:
But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep.<br /> Robert Frost


It's protrayed in movies 

it's protrayed in books 

it's talked about in songs 

it's talked about with your friends 

the memories you want to have 

the stories you want to be able to tell 

its all different from the reality that has been created 

 

We were betrayed 

we were beaten down 

we were left lost and 

BROKEN 

we were the ones left behind 

but the beauty in what we find is different from what it should be 

 

We have been 

betrayed 

We are

broken 

We were left

beaten 

But in the end we are the ones that found the beauty in the chaos 

 

Senior year has been taken away from the ones who wanted the magic 

senior year has been taken away from the ones that wanted to have you by our sides 

 

You destroyed the person that we were going to be 

We were able to recreate a new version of who we want to be 

 

everything is different 

it never should have been this way 

you left us 

broken beaten and betrayed 

Now we will leave

stronger wiser and smarter 

 

you destroyed the person that we were going to be

wr were able to recreate a new version of who we want to be 

 

it never should have been like this but 

different will be okay 


The author's comments:

I am a senior in high school but my teacher made a horrible mistake and it redirected the way that we lived out our last few months as seniors. Unfortunately with that comes a lot of different mistakes but as a whole we have been able to do something amazing and this poem talks about everything we collectively gone through.
