'walking Away'
You walked away with a smile on your face
Never suspected it would be your last say
The words goodbye never dripped from your lips
The words goodbye never crossed my mind
We were in this forever,
That abruptly became today
Forever and a day is what they say
your forever changed
like the seasons
All in one day
I let you be my forever,
Eternally yours
Even in my dreams,
The beginning had little hints of an ending
Here I stand, with my heart on my sleeve
Do you recognize the pieces?
Some of it ripped away
On driftwood,
an aimless journey
searching,
indecisive
and yet
it still remembers
to beat…
