I will walk by your rooms And see the same doors At the same locations But there’ll be no more The posters of the environment. And if I ever knock Strangers would come out And I will pretend That I am not shocked And not want to shout Anything out loud. Everything is done Everyone has left But I’m not alone Carrying on A whole new step. --> Like that, I will pretend Till the day I reach my end.

The winter is just as cold as the first year I came, even colder. And the people, the Americans, I was smart enough to be friendly and outgoing with them; and now I am smart enough to realize that we are simply different. My English is still not perfect, and my American knowledge is nowhere near a typical American’s. I still d
