A Few Thousand Nights

62

goodbye-
goodbye to all the sweet memories of you and I,
going places hand in hand,
laughing until our eyes couldn't see,
embracing until we forgot where we were.

goodbye to all the adventures we've shared,
all of our first times are now our last times-
to every time you've held my hand in yours
and the secrets that remain untold

goodbye to the man I once knew
to all the "I love you's" that were expected
to come.
to all the days you gave me a home-
in your heart is where i stayed.

i sink into this infinite black in my soul;
into the missing places you once filled
and the drainage of my love.
im broken.

goodbye to my best friend
to my everything
to my greatest love.
you are incomparable
and my heart will forever be in your hands.

-a letter to you.
