When I was 14 I met a friend
She was different but I felt like I knew her
She had an interesting story
Like a claw for a hand
And her name was sweet
She was flying to see her family
And I was going someplace new to me
I was on my flight to see my best friend
And Lu and I just kinda sat back
And enjoyed the peace where we were at
At one point I began drawing up some sketch of mine and a passenger behind us
Wrote a poem and handed it forward
Giving it to me
I read it and it made me feel thankful and loved
I didn't know that some strangers could be so cool and amazin
They're stories, they're lives, they're views, they're worlds...
Every word spoken or not
Written down or told from a thought
I wanted to hear it all
I wanted to know it all
I wanted to feel the love they had for the world
And ever since that simple day
The sun shining morning
I remember the passengers
A friend, or two, and a world I knew
And here I am thinking bout them
I wonder what they're. up. to.
By the way.
I still have that poem tucked away somewhere in a sketchbook or journal. And Lu, I hope all is well. Maybe I'll see you again someday.
(And sometimes. When I fly. I look for them. I hope I'll see them...again.)
Thank you for reading, bless you and all you do. You help me get around, thank you for all your love. If ever you wish to share $, it is greatly appreciated and provides me gas for my travels. Tusen takk!
