kiss me softly
hold me high
in your arms
i can fly

dance with me slowly
twirl me with grace
i am glad to see
a smile on your face

but changes come
as they always do
and this time the change
splits me and you

i have college
a future in grasp
you have the air force
also a daunting task

so with a tear in my eye
a fake smile on my face
i let you go
with one last embrace

It hasn't happened yet, but it is going to. As much as I don't want to see him go, I can't help but realize that he's going to go away. I guess I just have to hold on to him while I can.
