Crying hello

As the time starts to burn away the day,

tears fall from the words goodbye.

Leaving for a time that starts ending,

bleeding memories fleeting desire.

In all things tangible unspoken,

breaking apart to feel the distance.

Life letting loose understated,

realization becoming the light.

Fading into what’s this feeling,

making new ways to understand.

Moon is facing newer demons,

sunlight blisters eyes of pain.

Love expressed in deeper waters,

hopes fade away behind their smiles.

In a touch where truth can’t be measured,

lovers let go of holding on.

Tested by distance before the fall,

making a way to find fate once again.
