Poem: I know it's going to happen,
I know that it must come,
I'm waiting for the explosion,
To misery I could succumb.
I can hear the timer ticking,
There is no way to make it cease,
It's getting closer by the hour,
From this fate there's no release.
I will face this head on,
I know I can survive,
To go on living happily,
For this I'm going to strive.
One day I will look back on this
And wonder why I was scared,
It will all work out in the end,
For I know I've been prepared.
Time heals all I'm often told,
But my memories will persist.
The bad ones, I'll try to let them go,
The good ones, I wouldn't have missed.
So thanks for all you've done for me,
The time and care you've spent,
As you send me on my way,
I know that this was meant....
