Leaving

By Toia Starren

 

It's the way they come to you with something to say

But don't quite know how to say it

It's the way they look at you and

How their eyes water and glisten,

Like the sunlight shining off a pond

It's the way their voice cracks when they say goodbye

You know they are leaving
