“Where are You?”

My College Friends – Are you still there?

“Where are You?”

Written by: Yours Truly

To all my college close friends,

Where are you?

When our graduation came

Does even the friendship come into its end?

We were seatmates during class time,

Even at free times, we’re still together

With all our stories, we were present as witnesses

With all our problems, we were there for each other.

My four years in college

Has been so colorful because of you

You were my siblings to other mothers

And for all of these, I so much thank you.

And now we’re individually separated

Tackling down different careers

Every time I am alone

Wishing that you’re all here.

Don’t you have any spare time for me?

Where are you my dearest friends?

Or maybe you already forget about me?

But still, will you please always remember this?

That wherever you are right now

As time may pass and change

I just wanted you to know,

I’m still a so called friend.

I love you all so much.

My Note:

I wholeheartedly dedicate this poem translated in English to my friends’ way back in college.

As our college days became over, we had lesser time with each other.

I’m sorry for sometimes I became rude through my words when some of you can’t make it to our get together. It was just that I strongly believe that if you still treat me as your friend, then you will have time for us.

Yes, I’m bitter when there were times that all you do is to make excuses so that you won’t be able to meet us.

I even sometimes became mad, when you go to our meeting place but then you have your chaperones.

If you may call that as a childish act or narrow minded (hard for me to understand) then I’m sorry.

What I want is just to be with you, guys. All alone.

Friendship is a commitment.

It doesn’t require so much time but just a little, a little time to be with you.

And it will mean so much to me.

I know that we already have separate walks of life now, but then is that an enough reason for us not to meet somewhere along our own roads?

I miss you, guys. Terribly.

Us being complete is such a rare event.

Anyway, thank you for the memories.

My college life would never be completed without you.

Thank you so much and I wish you all the best in life.
