You close your eyes. Your heart beats a thousand beats a minute. You try and hold in the noise that is threatening to escape from deep within your throat.
Your stomach is swirling, fear spreading through your entire body making you feel as though you’re going to vomit.
You can’t hear those words, the ones that everyone has been saying, because you’re scared you going to cry. You eyes become blurry as they fill with tears.
You swallow, hoping that it’ll rid away the noise in your throat and the tears in your eyes.
As you walk, slowly, step-by-step, around this place that you’ve come to every single day for the past six years, you know that there are others that feel the same way as you do.
As you share wacky stories and have unimaginable conversations with those your call you friends, you can’t help but let your mind slip to the thought that this could be it, that these moments are the last for awhile with the ones you’ve come to know so well and shared a huge part of your life with.
As the days come and go, much too fast, you try and cherish every single moment with those that are there going through the same experience as you.
The familiar will soon become the unfamiliar.
So you hold onto those special moments of laughter, those wild conversations about what the future holds, You take them and you bury them deep into your heart, where all you cherished moments are held. They will remain there forever, filed under ‘the best years’ of your life.

You force yourself to remember that these were best years of your life and it’s time to say goodbye.
