To all things comes an end...
To all things comes an end.
We are no more than a character in a story,
our lives easily extinguished by a 1.0 or a 5.0…
Turn the page and thousands die. And for what?
For the pride of distinction and a sense of noble destiny.
As we march through a maze of moments,
One day, a fortnight… through years.
We step, some fall, most falter.
With a dream to find new worlds beyond familiar fences.
A dazzling gleam!
Another turn of the page.
Graduation creates drama, inspiration and relives tragedy.
And rewards exploits of acumen too.
And just when it seems we have reached the end,
we flip the page once more.
And we take the turn… the turn that will begin… a new beginning.
Is this the end of our tale? No, we are the pawns of fate.
There are still many pages to turn.
And to all things comes a beginning.

Still, I felt this one was loads better (well... riiiight, I wrote the whole thing anyway). Especially now that I could finally live through every single word of it.
