Dear Mr. Programmer:

We did not finish it and it is already time.
I would not have wanted this to end
But we then decided to part ways and go home.
You said we could continue it tomorrow.
So I had that hope for a chance.

Your words assured me that you would never leave it unfinished.
Then, I went out to bid goodbye.
You looked at me and smiled.
I swear it was the best thing I have remembered.
I smiled back from the moment I closed that door.
I knew that you would fulfill that promise.

Sincerely,
Hope
