Borrowed Time
Silence...
From the world gone by;
Silence...
From the wind, and the sky...

Another day gone,
A year disappeared,
To swim in silence
With the waves and a tear.

A new year started,
A journey begun,
To unite the joyous
And vanquish the glum.

Until this day
Have the hours just flown,
And in our struggle to stand
Have we always grown.

But now we are standing,
And to the children look grand;
For today we prepare
To venture forth to the land.

From this day forth
Do we stand on our own;
We shall join the adults...
(to pay student loans... ;-)
