We'll Remember You, Remember Us

M.H. McKay, Winterset High School Drama Director

We wish we could stay just a little bit longer

Among the blazing lights and adrenaline rush,

Among the senior circles and swirling dances,

Among the laughter and fun with friends.

Now it’s time for us to go.

We’ll remember you.

Remember Us

We have not made the perfect picture,

But it was a perfect picture for us.

Through sickness and hardship we stayed united,

Through the best of days and the worst of nights.

Now it’s time for a final goodbye.

We’ll remember you.

Remember Us.

Before we go, hear our last words of advice:

Never look back.

Never doubt your worth.

Never give up on your dreams.

Hold onto hope.

Hold onto joy.

They will be your light to the end of the tunnel.

We are stardust.

Yet even as we scatter, our bond will linger.

You will shine like us one day,

But for now, let us guide your way.

It’s time for us to go.

We’ll remember you.

Remember us.
