My Time To Leave
Nicolas Simpson 1983 (Illinois)
The day is coming to leave,
Learning a new technique weaving,
Ripping off one of my sleeve,
I'm at the point to stop my grieving,
Holding the memories to my heart,
Every day working on being smart,
Controlling my feelings about life,
Can't wait to leave this place,
And search for a wife,
It comes down to a race,
Showing respect to everyone and beyond,
Having fun while waiting,
Can't to start dating,
Enjoying my days before leaving,
Then the real fun begins out in the world,
Trusting people as I twirled,
Around, round, round we go,
Where we stop nobody knows,
Counting my days and hoping for the best,
After school its shower then rest,
Making my count today,
" Don't count the days,
Make the days count"............
