The hall soars in silence <br />Even the wall stares at me <br />My colleagues looking all excited <br />As they expect to hear a poem from me <br />But frankly my head is clouded <br />I am trying to talk <br />But yet remain mute <br />As the light position on me <br />Suddenly, a vibrant me voiced out <br />And here is what I have for you <br />My dear classmates… <br />We've been through thick and thin <br />Crossed a lot of hurdles <br />Many gave up on the struggle <br />Some left in the battlefield <br />But high we held our courage <br />In the fight for knowledge <br />It's been a long race <br />This began with a slow pace <br />Used to be just me on my page <br />Suddenly, a bunch of group eloped <br />And they are called CLASSMATES… <br />Together we verge for victory <br />From the hands of destiny <br />Though we had tight schedules <br />Still created time for each other <br />Stared a lot of challenges together <br />With our bond getting stronger after each lecture <br />Now I can't imagine a future without them <br />Wonder why we meet to depart someday… <br />Atimes, I wish it will continue without GRADUATION <br />Now beginning to understand the reason <br />Behind the lustrous jubilation <br />When classmates cross path <br />Your memories will remain nurtured <br />In the most sacred part of my aching heart <br />As I wish you all <br />A life full of MERRIMENT… <br /><br />Rabo Sanusi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/classmates-2/
