Ode to My Worried Friend

Folder: 
Family and Friends

It will all be over soon, Butterfly.

Soon, you too will sail away

And leave me here alone.

What's that, Butterfly?

You say that I will never be alone?

Well, we're all alone, Butterfly,

In some way.

Don't cry, Butterfly.

Your time will come,

And I will celebrate too.

But for now,

Let us be happy, Butterfly.

Or else the end will come,

And we will cry for lost time.

Don't cry, Butterfly.

Please, don't cry.

I wrote this for a friend when he was leaving and was worried about how I would take his departure.
