“I was always hungry for love. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like to get my fill of it — to be fed so much love I couldn’t take any more. Just once.”
– Haruki Murakami (via creatingaquietmind)

Farewell

- an original, enjoy :)

I miss your hands

the patterns I used to draw on them

their crooked lines

like vines on your fingers

I miss your smile

that dimple on your left cheek

and that laugh

that clumsily stepped down the scale

you were the type of unknown

that I couldn’t help but know

a stranger that I somehow knew

a mystery that I was able to solve

I wish that we could fall back

into our routine

and become comfortable once again

with each other, with ourselves

and return to our life together

but you are your own person now

without me, without ‘us’

you have your own routine

one that does not suit two

our story has ended

and it is not a happy one, but

a strained and open-ended ending

the kind that may continue

but does not promise to
