Leaving

by Kelsey Jerome

 

I know that at one point in life people leave you, but eventually most do come back. Leaving is part of life, we all leave and we all get left. In three weeks he will tell me goodbye and I know for sure that I will cry. He is my friend leaving for college and will be back often I know, but things won't be the same. No more fun times sitting in the bleachers, no more "bar fights" and no more embarrassing our moms. When he leaves so will part of me, but in return I get to keep part of him with me. All of the good times and the bad also the silly and the sad. He'll come back from time to time, but I know it will be just so he can leave again. He'll say goodbye every time and of course I'm going to cry. I'll miss him when he's gone, but even when he's here I'll still miss him knowing that he has came to go again. Just because we leave, doesn't mean we have to stay gone.
