culmination of a story & a goodbye session.
i woke up this morning and gathered up my thoughts, memories, worries and emotions from where they had fallen haphazardly around my bed after i collapsed at 5 am, then took a deep breath, and left them all in the sheets where they belong. i can love you when you’re here and i can love you when you’re gone, but i won’t be missing you and i will never wait for you.
