I walked by your locker today
Hoping you would still be there.
But when I saw it was empty
My heart sank with despair.
I hope you are happy,
Back home with your family and friends.
I know we have to part for a while,
But we will cross paths again.
I wish that you would have won the game
So you would have been able to stay.
But life likes to throw
Curve balls that way.
I reflect the day you said “Hi”, to me in the hall,
You smiled, said my name and that was all.
You will come back when summer ends.
Back to me and all your new friends.
So until the day I see you again,
I bid you farewell and
I will miss you,
My friend.
