Marching season is over

The competitive marching season ended last Saturday, but it really only set in on Monday

It feels weird knowing that you can never do something again

Sure, I could join a college marching band

but it would be under a different director and with different people

I'll never march with the people who saved my life

I'll never march with the people who saved my life

I hope to god I never lose touch with the people in this band

most of them at least

but even if I do

I'll always have the dog tags to remember the people who saved me

and it'll be at least one source of joy, knowing I still have a connection to those who saved me

even if I can no longer talk to them
