"See you later"

He walked through my door 

The last time 

I held him and took in his being 

I stared down the clock

Daring it to tick forward

Did you take it for granted 

The moments were only granted 

The time where I treasured him

Now it's here 

I couldn't believe where time went 

It all escaped us 

Lucidity in unwrapping the present 

Controlling our aches and ravaging hearts 

I saw the fear in our minds 

I saw the possibility in our grasp

Waiting 

We saw each other together 

As a part of something else 

Everything starts over 

In time

"Hello"

Whether you read it bottom to top or top to bottom, it tells a story. I wanted to show mindsets when any relationship was ending or starting.
