Far From Home

Flying with John for so long

We immediately clicked 

and became close friends.


Becoming close friends,

we both have shared a passion for flying,

pushing me to my limits.

Now, I'm on my own.

Flying solo.

John is gone for training.


Moving to Arizona soon,

I will be doing more training.

Flying for college every day,

I would look at a giant map 

planning cross countries.


Leaving everything behind

I am far from home

but I won’t lose my hope.
