Rabo Sanusi - Classmates

The hall soars in silence
Even the wall stares at me
My colleagues looking all excited
As they expect to hear a poem from me
But frankly my head is clouded
I am trying to talk
But yet remain mute
As the light position on me
Suddenly, a vibrant me voiced out
And here is what I have for you
My dear classmates…
We've been through thick and thin
Crossed a lot of hurdles
Many gave up on the struggle
Some left in the battlefield
But high we held our courage
In the fight for knowledge
It's been a long race
This began with a slow pace
Used to be just me on my page
Suddenly, a bunch of group eloped
And they are called CLASSMATES…
Together we verge for victory
From the hands of destiny
Though we had tight schedules
Still created time for each other
Stared a lot of challenges together
With our bond getting stronger after each lecture
Now I can't imagine a future without them
Wonder why we meet to depart someday…
Atimes, I wish it will continue without GRADUATION
Now beginning to understand the reason
Behind the lustrous jubilation
When classmates cross path
Your memories will remain nurtured
In the most sacred part of my aching heart
As I wish you all
A life full of MERRIMENT…
