[ Poem] Goodbye

 

This is goodbye.

You are leaving.

I am staying. Not unchanged, not waiting.

I know who I am.

I know what I feel.

Is this peace, suffocating me? I greet her as a long lost friend.

Ups I lost. Or did you?

I am ok.

I can only hope you are too.

I do not hate fate.

I do not hate you.

Just fly and I do too.

I can smile midst weeping.

I can live midst missing.

I can pray midst suffering.

I can dream midst freezing.

I can learn midst staying.

I am me.

You are you.

We are far.

We will remain far.

Were we always far?

I do not know.

I do care.

I double care.

So I stay, not waiting, just praying for you to smile, live, pray, dream and learn.

This is your goodbye.

This is not mine.

Even so: thank you.

Somehow you allowed myself to me.
