#WritcoPoemChallenge

The journey has come to an end,
Weaving through meandering paths,
Sometimes alone, often with a friend,
We made these moments last.

For every memory that we make,
Are footprints left behind,
Sometimes in every path we take,
Our debts are paid in kind.

We may not know where we would go,
We do know where we’ve gone,
Like the stars we ebb and flow,
Our souls still carry on.

As we walk down memory lane,
The paths we took thus far,
Will never make us feel in vain,
The victors that we are.

We look up to the final path,
We see the setting sun,
Because there is no going back,
From the man I will become.

So here’s to all the memories here,
And new worlds that we’ll see,
Our paradise was what we shared,
A home for you and me.
