Summer Got Away

Summer after senior year;
that's when everything got real.
No more high school years,
no more time to plan it out.

Summer jobs will have to pass;
Load your gear and pack your bags.
Colleges classes are around the corner;
Pack up your bathing suits and pull out your pants.

The last summer as kids,
everything becomes so surreal.
It's the summer before everything ends,
but everything actually begins.

Packing our boxes; moving away.
Summer ends and our lives begin.
We'll make mistakes and learn in our own way.
Life lessons are what we need. ♥

We'll have to make new friends,
find our own ways home;
sometimes it's not the one that got away,
but the summer that got away.
