you said goodnight,
but it felt more like an excuse to say a short goodbye.
so there went a piece of myself.
our hearts were once
wandering stars in the midnight sky,
but now
we both aimlessly pretend
we're okay
until we run into each other again,
and don't say anything,
but dart opposite ways
because then we realize
how much of the other we possess
and how much of ourselves is really missing.
