#opportunity - Hello Poetry

Your vanishing is getting closer Those fun days will soon be over It’s great for you but it scares me Will you forget me intrusively? As the days quickly come by I ask myself in your thoughts will I die? I picture in my spaced-up head In your mind, will I be dead? You talk about a different state A different road, a different fate And every time you speak that dream I smile more than I really mean Because I know this move is right A chance to finally feel alright To be with family once again Instead of wishing, wondering when You sounded happier these days Like sunlight breaking through the gray And honestly, that makes me glad Even while it makes me sad We only knew each other for some months Yet somehow that became enough Eight months of random conversations And unfinished explanations You learned the chaos in my head The things I meant but never said The jokes that barely made sense too But somehow always clicked with you I’ll miss the walks and random talks The late replies at ten o’clock The stupid screenshots that we’d save The little comments that you gave I’ll miss the comfort of your name Popping up almost every day Like somehow things felt less intense Whenever you were in the sense Now every mention of the move Makes my emotions disapprove Because I want the best for you But selfishly still want you too And no, you’re not across the sea But far still feels too far to me A thousand miles might as well be Another world eventually I’m scared that distance slowly wins That life gets loud and silence slips in At first we’ll swear we’ll always talk Then days go by around the clock You’ll make new friends and find new places Learn new roads and recognize faces And maybe one day I’ll just turn Into a name you barely learn That thought alone feels sharp somehow Like losing pieces of me now Because these months became so real More real than either would reveal I know your mother needs you there And I know you deserve that care A home that maybe feels complete A steadier ground beneath your feet I hope the house feels safe at night I hope your future shines out bright I hope the hard days disappear And peace replaces every fear I hope you laugh the way you do That loud unstoppable thing of you The kind that makes bad moments fade Like sunlight cutting through the shade And maybe I’m just scared of change Of watching something rearrange Because people promise they’ll remain Then slowly memories get strained But maybe this won’t end that way Maybe we’ll still talk every day Maybe the bond we somehow made Won’t weaken just because you strayed Maybe we’ll call when things get rough And prove that distance isn’t enough To **** the things that mattered most Or turn us into distant ghosts Because in eight short months somehow You mattered more than words allow And even if your world expands I hope you still reach for my hand Your vanishing is drawing near And yes, it fills my chest with fear But underneath all that despair I’m still so glad you’ll make it there So go and build the life you need Go chase the hope, go plant the seed Just promise somewhere down the line You’ll still remember this small time The random nights, the dumb complaints The tired talks, the inside names Because no matter where life leads A part of you stays here with me Every single talk that we had Things that disappear turning me sad I promise it won't go to waste Because my heart is where your name is placed Far across the country you fly And yet I still sometimes wonder why But you will have memories in your suitcase that is heavy And your favorite people holding them steady I may seem sad and that is true But deep inside I show pride for you The time together will go from minutes to years But not always will I be in tears

Minutes to Years

Your vanishing is getting closer Those fun days will soon be over It’s great for you but it scares me Will you forget me intrusively?
