Exit Row Seat

My best friend left today.

Her journey long, her companions many,

Fellow travellers called to this trek from every corner.

Their destination, much visited but unknown to most,

A paradise some say but they’re yet to go.

I hope she travels well, and makes new friends

Because I know she is never coming back.

These days will soon be passed but memories I know will last of the times I spent with you.
