Graduation Day

Casey
Graduation Day

Other girls were curling their hair

Doing their make-up

Getting ready for a once in a lifetime event

Graduating from high school, an accomplishment

While they were doing that I was getting beat

Then I was allowed ten minutes to get dressed

I was late for my graduation day

I really wasn't even there in a sense

I was trapped in hell

With a beast beyond description

He was in the stands

As my class and I entered and sat down

Watching my every move

I also focused on my every move

Know the repercussions

If I were to give a hug or say hello

To a male classmate or a girl he disliked

Graduation day was stolen from me

The party afterwards

You wouldn't find me there

I was whisked away right after the diplomas

And pictures were taken

Back to hell on earth

He stole so many invaluable things

In which I will never be able to get back

This bothers me greatly

More than the six grand he put me in debt

More than the scars that will never leave me

More than the repercussions I'm dealing with now

I can't ever get those years back

I can't ever graduated from high school again

Graduation day was just another blur

In the hell of my youth

    This is one thing that bothers me so much. Graduation is suppose to be an accomplishment a wonderful day in a young persons life. And I feel like it was just stolen from me. And you can't graduate high school ever again...

    Sad. It's terrible when events that are supposed to be grand milestones in your life become twisted and warped into bad memories. It really is a loss.
