It was Laura
that made me cry
her steady face
the one who always smiles
from the 3rd row back
the dismissal bell rung

The hum of students leaving
the bus horns honking
and a teary eyed Marta enters my room
how dare I to not tell her I was leaving until today

Nina
an ornery 11th grader
too beautiful
and smart
not to be angry
I wish I had said to her
a thousand things
instead she left a note

Simon
entering five times
a beautiful necklace presented
Tsukasa with his mom

my heart...
IS
