There is always a road,
The sea, dark hair, dolor.

Always a question
Bigger than itself—

They say you’re leaving Monday
Why can’t you leave on Tuesday?


------------------

I got your note
had to look up dolor
you know more words than I do
you are sweet

And yeah,
there are questions
Bigger than all of us
I get that

But
Hanging on another day....
This is hard enough
No point

I'm sorry
If this might seem unkind
I am not going to start lying to you
Now

I know
You won't believe me
I didn't the first time either
It's hard

Look
I'm not immune
I know what that moment was
We danced

But
That is what it was, a moment
The sun comes up
Eventually

A mistake
To try and make it
Something else, than what it is
Never works

Goodbye
I will promise you one thing
I will think of you for a long time
I swear
“Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world.”
