i fear your change,
that you'll succumb to their rage.
you didn't flinch at what she barked
when that girl expletively remarked.
you have calloused to their way,
i know you'll always be like day.
walk on the side with the light,
i know you will if you have to fight.
i forgot that i can't grow with you.
please don't be one to leave me too.
until next year, my friend.
i'll be here waiting, writing until the end.
