Saying Goodbye

This week I will have to say goodbye
the school year ends on Friday
And I know that I should be jumping for joy
screaming, "school is over!"
But I can't
because it means I have to say goodbye
I have to let go of this class
that I have taught for two years straight
This class that has become a family to me
this class that makes me laugh
every day
Even on days that started out with me crying
this class
has helped teach me about me
and I hate that I have to let them go
But it's time to say goodbye
It's time to let them go
