i did not want to say goodbye
not entirely, at least.
but i had to
i had to
i had to


and look at us now.

I kissed you as the flames
danced and popped in the sky,
another moment with you
frozen in time

another moment
passed by

got to eat them as they darken
reddened ruby to black constant opal
berries will rot quickly if you don’t
or they’ll taste real gooey and wierdy
if you let the drupelets’ colors get
unsynchronized like summer and fall

...why am i telling you this?
because i learned that the hard way
and the days go away in the gleam
heavy showers and peak-a-boo sun
the east barely bracing for the storm
and the sweetness decaying like the leaves

Be careful not to fall in love
Walk in so that if there’s ever a need to leave, you can just walk out

True fear is not of that which we know,
But that of which we know nothing about
All that is fiction and myth those things that are impossible to figure out
Makes you wonder right?
Wait not yet don’t turn of the lights
Is it really out of mind out of sight
