This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Waterloo chapter.
The beginning was of becoming
The one page of a chapter
That led my soul to poetry
A beginning of escapade
Escape from the dull world
A colourful world of poems
Stanza by stanza
We delve deep
From words of Shakespeare
My love speaks through
A couple of couplets
My pain speaks
Through sonnets
My curiosity screams through
The Victorians
Oh how this world gave me
My most treasured gift
The gift to write
The gift of beauty in words
My weapon
My grace
Bleeding through my thoughts
Here I send an ode
To my precious gift
This may be the last time here
But not the last stanza
I write in this life
An ode to this chapter
An ode to the last page
An ode to the last time
Ode to the goodbye.
Ode to the last time.
