goodbye

still paralyzed by
the pain
of your parting
using all my knowledge
to turn emotions into facts
still defeated, at the end of a.day.

some says this separation, is temporary
i donno
it's hard to believe in anything

i hope wherever you are now,
it's kinder, and free of pain
i love u
i wish we had more
i wish it wasn't so conflicting all the time

i love u, mother. i remember you, in your photos, in your words, in my dreams, and in my daughters dimples.

i love you
goodbye
