The goodbye is here
Five minute conversations now exist where three hour conversations couldn’t begin to reside
There is space and silence and distance and I wonder what happened…again
I wonder what did I do…again
I wonder why I am alone, why can’t I find it and keep it and have it in my life
I’m wondering...again
And I feel desperate and dangerous and lost and afraid
And I didn’t want to be here...again
It did happen too fast
Words of forever were spoken too fast
The fantasy unraveled too fast
The reality came too fast and too hard and it was crushing
We were not meant for each other- that much is evident
You are wild, maybe too wild for me
I am too afraid of everything to just go with your flow, your way, your vibes, and just be
You are too ready to rush into darkness, guns blazing all or nothing
I still need to feel my way around the darkness slowly, safely

But it was nice
It was really nice
You are such a wonderful spirit
I hope you find someone to be in your life who can really and truly enhance that
And not try to contain that remarkable, vibrant, untamable, passionate, innocent, world-worn man-child that lives in you
It was so great meeting you and getting to know you and being with you and loving you and being loved by you and being in love with you
I will remember this time together always
And believe it or not, I’ll remember this time fondly
I know that mistakes were made but I know we had some once in a lifetime moments- at least I did- and I will treasure that
You made me laugh, and think and love with an intensity I was longing for and I thank you for allowing me into your life
Our time was short but it was so rich you are inscribed please, please believe that
I love you and I am so very, very happy to have been yours for a little while
I’m glad that I’d found a wonderfully warm, safe, loving place within your embrace for a little while
