Magpie 299 - So long, Farewell

Airport
Visual prompt by Magpie Tales

He was off
So long
Farewell.

Til' later
she mumbled.
Gave him
a kiss.

A once 
we were more 
than friends
goodbye
kiss.

She
could not wait
didn't walk to the gate.
The car idled
in the unloading area.
Her friends awaited her.

He
didn't hang on.
Didn't squeeze her 
against him.
It was so long, farewell, goodbye 
for both of them
They just didn't say it in words.
