Do it, you know you have to. Even if you don't want to.
So don't look back while you're at it. Maybe only
at the glass exit. Only. After that,
hand your passport to the counter staff,
lug your baggage through the gates;
all your baggage, don't leave any behind.
Know that nothing, not even us, is left behind
when you're simply taking steps forward
and around and around spinning to
a whole new world where
no one loves you any less.
Yes,
just go.
i'll miss you (two).
