he's leaving
i surrounded by nothing
the nothing that is so heavy
it suffocates me
so silent
that it deafens all other noises
so hollow it fills every crevice of my body and mind
like you could touch me and your hand
would simply pass through my entire being
he's leaving
i feel everything
the laughs shared
as i cried in his arms
words whispered
as we declared our love to the world
he's leaving
i feel joy, pain, sorrow
but not anger
i love him still
so i can't say i wish him dead or gone
i love him enough to wish him the best
even though my heart is being handed back to me
in a million pieces
those pieces are all the memories shared
they're the kisses, the hugs...
they're everything
he's leaving
i wonder
does he knows that as he walks away
he still has a part of me with him
a part that can never be given
nor taken back
he's leaving
i remain
or what's left of me remains
still loving what i shouldn't
hoping for useless things
he's leaving
i can't hate
not someone who was my best friend
someone i cared for completely
someone who showed me
how beautiful the world could be
he's leaving
and as he does
i hope he sees in my eyes
the love i still have
the wish i'm hoping
that he can forevermore be happy
he's leaving
he's gone...
