I liked this...although I'm slightly confused if there's a death taking place or just moving away from home. Most of the poem suggests death, yet, "Your little girl is flying your nest,
To find meaning in her life." makes it seem as she's moving away from home at her own will, and happily...
Anyway, I liked this. The first stanza was my favourite, because the subtle repetition of depart/ing strengthened the message.
Keep writing!

UM KINDA LOST IT WAS CONFUSING BUT I GUESS......................

Keep up the good work
