Leaving by Melvin Lee

On a day like today,a young lady arrivedat the airport,with familyand friends.Her heart was heavy,and she was sad.For she knew the timehas come to leavethis Heaven andreturn to thefar lonelyworldelsewhere.Unsettling feelingin her heart,a kind of longingto stay back forever.A kind of familiar lonelinessthat she was acquainted with,comes to her again.And she sighed,wistfully, forlornly,hoping again hope,to stay in this limboof joy andbelongingforever.'Oh no, I'm leaving again',she murmured,hot tears threateningto well in her eyes.Bravely, she forceda smile at herloved ones.Without much ofa second look,she bid themfarewell.In the plane,the girl sat,with eyes closed,reliving thosewonderfuland fondmemoriesshe left behind,and those sweet voicesand carefree laughterthat accompaniedevery single imagethat went fleeting pass.Unconsciously,a faint smile ghosted at her mouth.'I'll see them again soon.Take care, my loved ones,I'LL BE BACK.'
