Don't forget these days, don't forget them...

Written on 18th Dec. while packing bags for what might be the last trip to this campus from home as student (this is the last term here).

Don't forget these days, don't forget them...

When we move away; far, far away,
In body and in spirit,
Chasing lofty dreams, separate paths...

Think of these days, days gone by...

When under the weight of friendships, newer and older,
The friendship of these days begins to look trivial;
Under the burden of inflated ego or will,
Camaraderie of these days feel like immature mistakes,

Think of these days, days gone by...

These days of folly, days of perfection,
Necessary comradeship and unnecessary confession,
Of garrulous misunderstanding, silent understanding...

Remember these days, days gone by...
