Chapter 10 - Passing of Torch

They gave us a precious gift

A gift of love, passion and friendship

For that, there's no problem we can't lift

We were guided by awesome leadership

Though we didn't had the desired result

We were marred by errors and faults

But I am glad I was with all of you the whole time

I'm glad I met all of you way back in time

I am not sad because it ended that way

But I am sad because we only have a day

A day to remember the past

A day to make the memories last

For the past six years, I've been the happiest

Because I know I'll see you in a year or next

But I never imagined this would be the last

The last time to play, the last ride in the bus

Not only to the three of you will I bid my farewell

But to the ground we know so well

It never twinkled nor sparkled in the brood daylight

But it is the most precious diamond I've set sight

When we started, our path was clear

But nearing its end, I was blinded by tears

Suddenly, I don't want to end this year's journey

To live the what ifs and continue the fantasy

I know this would be inevitable

To pass the torch and rest the ball

This may be the end of our journey

But it is the beginning of our junior's legacy.
