3 brothers down.
and now it comes to me.
i'm not dating anyway.
but eventually it will be.
I'm next.

I've lived so long
with this buffer between
me and marriage,
but now it can be seen
I'm next.

This is exciting,
This is terrifying,
This is long waited for,
This is coming so fast.
I'm next.

I'm next in my brothers
to be the one to wed
To find that one person
for life's journey together tred.

I'm next to graduate
To leave mothers nest
to go out into the world
and join all the rest.

I'm next one to be,
My time is now up me
What my future holds
I can't wait to behold
it will be sight to see.
Kinda nuts. Brother number 3 is graduated and getting married in 2 days. So now I'm the one next in line for both of those. Of course, my brother is going to go on to grade school, so he's not completely done yet, but still.

I'm now the bachelor trying to get my bachelor's degree. It's weird to think of my self in those terms, but that's that way, but such is the case.

The poem summarizes basically everything. on one hand this is kind of scary, i will be a full fledged adult. on another hand, this is wicked exciting, i will be a full fledged adult. pretty intense!
