When I Moved Away

When I Moved Away
when I moved away
from all I knew
towards opportunities,
I packed my life
by life order, by function?
when I moved away
there were plenty of boxes
and a moving container
plus my car to fill
but they weren’t big enough
when I moved away —
one was missing
there was no box for my emotions,
tears for those I’d miss,
excitement for those I’d meet
when I moved away.
