Writing sappy scenes of your OTP that you're currently hyperfixated on – the pure elation, the glee, the joy, the rush, the giddiness – No drug compares...
(And that drug is just a fuck ton of dopamine being released in my ADD brain lmao)

We were not meant to say goodbye
Far better are hellos
For love of one exists in all
In others
We find home
Yet dipped in ink our newborn hands
Have signed a contract plenty
Of how we must destroy ourselves
For betterment
Of many
They preach to us bright solitude
And echo's far this myth
But we are never us alone
We are
Who we are with
Find haven in the ones around
Yet this around decays
But know the solace that we've built
Will see
Another day
We were not meant to say goodbye
Yet separate we do
For following a mournful end
A greeting's born
Anew

the mortifying ordeal of being known crushes me under the weight of its huge sexy ass

brush me 'adieu' in lieu of a goodbye
because a breeze as you leave
is preferred
to that empty sigh of a reply...
"goodbye"

In a 24 hour day, I am spending 25 hours saying goodbye.
Saying sorry.
Making promises of a next time that will never come.
The word feels leaden on my tongue,
heavier every time it leaves my mouth.
I am in a moving car with the people I love,
approaching the front of their house.
Their futures wait in front of the gates,
Palm to hip, impatient.
I can feel the clock ticking,
My chest squeezing with the time lost.
I am talking, still talking, still talking;
hoping my words will hook them for just a while longer.
hoping my voice can anchor them to me, for just a few minutes more.
But the door clicks, and they are already one foot out of it.
I know I have to say the words now, bid them well.
I know I have to choke out the syllables.
But my heavy tongue sits still in my mouth,
My voice lies quiet in my throat.
The door clicks shut once more.
They are waving, waving, walking away:
And then they are gone.
I still haven’t looked up; the smile frozen on my face.
We drive away, and the loneliness returns again.
Suddenly, it has been three months since the last farewell.
A silence hangs between us, pregnant with all the things unsaid.
It is waiting, waiting, yearning for something to break it;
for the words to spill out; unbidden, whole, honest-
But to speak would be to say goodbye once again;
and neither of us can bear another one.
