A mutual parting of the lips. A gasp filling an empty room. Shakes consuming a body as it struggles to comprehend the anguish that only just appeared. A forgotten task. A half-empty cup of soda. Words left unsaid. How does one comprehend goodbyes? How does one accept it and love the feelings that are overtaking their torn bodies while also fighting to hold on? What does it mean to be so broken inside that they want to beg for forgiveness even if it might not be in their best interests? How do you rationalize poison? How do you explain a pain so strong that you are left feeling completely empty? How do you accept three years as a simple parting? I don’t know.
