OF GOODBYES
just this afternoon, ethel left for dubai
it all came as a surprise to me
though she often talks about it
i didn't know that it'll be this soon
yesterday i was tapping her at devo
but she was busy with something else
then olive told me
that her flight will be today already
we didn't even get to talk
or say our goodbyes
this morning she texted me and i cried
she's one the first
and closest friend i had on church
suddenly i remember
all those spend times we spend together
when i was a young disciple
i know she had long wanted
to get out of the country
and have a better job
we've been praying for this
it's just so sad
that she has to go
and i'm really not good
dealing with goodbyes
