Goodbye,
For now.
I will miss you.
As the space between us grows,
The more I long to see you again.
You will never leave me.
There will always be a small part of you
That lives within me,
Forever reminding me of who I once was.
And I will never forget you,
Just as my fingerprints will never completely leave
Your cracked surfaces.
Thinking of you reminds me of past times -
Of laughter shared in an empty room,
Of screams ricocheting against brick walls,
Of forgiveness and cautious love.
So I will never forget you.
But, goodbye,
For now.
I know I will see you again.
Someday.
