farewell
but there is no comfort in that word
farewell is a word that promises
absolutely nothing

you and me
me and you
we are the arrangement of light and dark
the juxtaposition of good and evil
but we both know that those are just the names of two
different sides

did you think i did not have a heart?
all living things have a heart
and the heart of any living thing
can be broken
did you think i did not have a heart?

is it really such a terrible thing
to hope without reason?
or is hope something you might as well do
because it makes no difference to anyone
at all
even you
