Sometimes in the airport I save a seat for you.
I hope that you will be boarding a plane or on a layover
and we could happen to meet one more time,
before we once again depart in different directions.

I always wanted you to let me in
but I eventually realized
you had nothing
inside.

I'm on the edge of sleep,
but I'm scared.

What if I fall over
and
only
have
dreams
of
you
forever?

Sometimes life is not fair,
but when you're the cause
of the unfairness,

life is unbearable.

You were never right for me.

The way you saw the world didn't match the world in which I lived.
We looked with two different unique perspectives.

I saw the future and my place boldly in it. You saw the now and the minor details my mind effortlessly glazed over.

I didn't know how to live for the moment, but you didn't know how to dream of the future.

But I kept moving,
and you stayed behind.

My heart is captured.

And for once,

you don't have it.

It didn't happen like they said.
My life did not flash before my eyes in an instant and
there was no formal presentation of my being.
I didn't see the end,
but I also didn't witness the beginning.
All I felt was stillness.

And the world spinning slowly on.
