I’ll forget you now
To remember you later
Getting close today could mean
Us never talking tomorrow.
The more we share, I fear,
Is what’s tearing us in half.
Some thoughts can never be unshared,
Some dreams can never be undreamt,
But if I could go back
I would slow everything down,
Take every moment, and live it.
Live every smile,
Every laugh,
Every hug,
Every hello,
And every goodbye.
So that now,
I can say hello to you
Instead of goodbye.
