Oh, Bumble Bee!
“Oh, Bumble Bee!
Go make like a tree,
And don’t leave me!”
Buzz, Buzz, Buzz,
You Buzz just like a bee!
It’s not good for you, don’t you see!
You leave unannounced
and don’t say a thing,
They don’t know you’re gone,
‘Till they realize it’s spring!
Buzz, Buzz, Buzz,
run away from us
and don’t ya fuss!
…
Well, Yes, I Buzz just like a bee,
‘cuz that’s what I am,
and there’s no changing me!
I’m not like you, I'm not a tree!
I can’t stay grounded to this place forever!
I need to be free!
I long for your desire to stay where you’re at, but that’s not how I am!
I won’t change for you, and that’s just that!
I’d love to be rooted to the ground,
and want to stay here forever,
but when I think of my life like that? I frown!
I’m not a tree,
I’m a bumble bee!
what’s wrong with me..?

Just a little poem I wrote one day after being asked why I want to go to college far away/move away from home. :)
