over looked

and does she come along?
no - the answer simple and
clear. she like me is well

anchored by life. will he
return? is the better issue
at hand. in truth it does not

matter - it is tainted by
the leaving that is done. we
can forgive, reunite, still

there'll be nights with the urge
to escape because we know
we were not chosen to stay

say the long goodbye it is best that way
