My last year in school
Soon came upon me
I thought I had had
All the education
And this short year is
Just "to pass".
Knowing little that
It's now that I'll learn
Some things I never knew.
I learned I'm not complete
I'll always keep learning...
I learned that confidence is not
Always proving that I'm right
But always accepting my fault.
I came to know that
"Sorry" doesn't always
Make you look down
But it always heals wounds.
I understood that friends
Are not for exchanging nailpaints
But love, tears and smiles.
I learned that victory
Is not having expensive stuff
But having an invaluable life
I learned why
A "B- Grade" is important,
For it is the one that tells
That an "A" is better.
I understood that
The greatest accomplishment is
Helping others even if they don't
Realize it.
I thought I had grown up but still
My mistakes were forgiven
Teaching that I'm still in school-
And that was when
I came to know
What schools are for.
