This battle is over, but the war's not close to done

a/n this was my eighth grade graduation poem. hope you like it:)

The days are getting shorter, while we are getting older

The weeks go by like the sands of time, not lingering for a moment longer

Friends are fading enemies growing

Personalities changing and no one knows where they're going

Dreams are withering away like dust in the wind

Shadows start to fade as the sun goes down again 

The moon rise's high to shine on us now

The days may have been hard

We may have hated ever second

But we will live on to fight, another battles won

The wars not over its not even close to being done

But this battle is over its time to move on

So pack up your weapons the shelling has stopped

It's time to say goodbye to the friends who aren't gone

We've lost so many along the way

For the deadliest battle is the place where we learn

For knowledge is a gift and also a curse

We have good and bad inside us all

What will we choose when it's time to take the fall

For that's what makes us who we are

This will be the day we have waited for

This will be the day the doors are opened

This will be the day the seal is broken

For time has taken its token

Choices to be made, Promises to be broken

But do not judge us for which troll we give are token

And leave the silence unbroken

For a Villon is just a victim who's story hasn't be told
