say goodbye
through the letters
i wrote to you
on water-logged paper.
fill them with your poetry
written for her.
let me pretend
you wrote them for me.
i'll tell you
i wish i'd kissed you
before i left.
i can't tell
if loving you
has been a delusion.
if loving you
has only been a lie to myself.
miss me.
please.
if i'm to die
before my journey is through,
just know
that i have always
always
always
loved parts of you.
