i saw you today
not hyperreal
but i saw you today
surreal

you were not
as beautiful
as you remained in
my mind

but you were
extraordinary
you were
breathtaking

because you were you.

you waved at me
and smiled
but your hand froze
and your eyes were dead

i looked at you
and cried
but i turned my head
and wiped my tears

"goodbye"

i wispered.

for the thousandth time
this week.

"please stay"

you wispered.

for the thousandth time
this week.

"i can not"
"you can not"

we wispered.

at the same time.

because if i would have wanted
to stay,
i would have seen the bad in
good bye.

good bye.
we have to say it over and over again.

good bye.
bad bye.
good bye.

good bye.
good bye.
good. bye.
