A flash of future me; it's a crowded airport, but I hear her say
'it's nice to come here, but it's also nice to leave' I take my seat near the aisle She and her brother sit next to me They share a profile. They speak casually, mentioning places they'd like to roam I listen and ask about their travels If they're leaving or going home? As we reach the air, I turn to my sudoku book They turn to serious conversation I hear things that make me look up into a mirror it feels, ironically, they are facing what is coming for me I heard it so often, I didn't stop to think it might be true
It's just something people say especially around the holidays "Time flies" And it hits me all at once For five years, I've been away from the cold; in other people's eyes, my parents are old Next year marks a new decade To have lived through three at twenty-three is surreal Dad lifting me up high to place the tree topping star Now - I try to wake early those chilly mornings to start his car.
