On Leaving

MAKESHIFT

You get a strange feeling when you're about to leave a place
Like you'll not only miss the people you love
The feelings you've felt, relationships you've built
But you'll miss the person that you are now at this time and place
Because you'll never be this way ever again

Every time I sit and write down lines about moving on
I get this feeling of hope
This feeling that maybe someday things will actually get better
I guess that remains to be seen
