Were leaving its time to say goodbye.

I guess this is our sad time
to say our sorrowful words
it makes me cry
even before I write this.
I will miss my dear friends that I have to leave behind and I will miss my dear year 6 friends that are going to a different school than me.

Six years of primary school is almost at its end
Now what awaits us are new teachers, new friends
Don't hold back the tears, feel free to cry
It is after all, our final goodbye

Bittersweet memories all started here
Of happiness, sadness, anger and fear
It's time to move on as the future comes near
It's time to end our sixth year

Notes that were passed amongst each other
Homework and tests that were always a bother
Friends that would always stick together
All started here in one way or another

The stepping stones the last few years were
To the life we're about to face
So I thank everyone who has helped me here
And giving me dreams to chase

A huge thank you to all my friends
For being there for me
I hope this is not when our friendships end
It's just not meant to be

My teachers, thank you so much
For never giving up on me
I know I'm not that good and such
But at least I'm trying to be

Six years have passed by so fast
Never thought this day would come near
Alas, let's just celebrate our last
The end of our primary school years
