Post Graduation is Arriving
I slip off into a quiet field
There is light
Golden and warm
And if you look hard enough
Tears cover your eyes
It's the culmination of all that you can feel in one concentrated moment
Like a touch of too much peppermint in your drink
Like an ice cube on the back of your neck
Sharp and cold
The entirety of everything comes down to this
One radiant shining moment
One bitter and sweet shining moment
It lasts for a little while and you must bathe in that glory
You must
Pull confidence from the very air warping around you
From the very breathe of those people who love you
Take it and remember
All that has given you this chance
All that matters
Turn it into a happy pill
And swallow
Because Life is running from the other end of your story
To meet you at a chapter titled: “The Turn”
You need to be ready
Be brave
And embrace it with open arms.
