Leaving

I sit there, holding in tears.

Palms sweating profusely,

hands shaking uncontrollably,

Its almost time for the inevitable.

I hear the call.

I stand shaking, unable to

do it just yet.

We say our tearful goodbyes,

tightly hugging, uncontrollably sobbing.

I look behind one last time and say my goodbyes.

I board the plane, and fly away.
