You came back today. For a couple hours it felt like home again. We kissed and I felt your touch. I kissed your neck and curled up next to you when you put your arm around me. We shared our favorite blue pillow and for a second I almost forgot that you never left. But then your phone rang, I knew it was her from the look on your face. You told me not to say a word, so badly not wanting the moment to end I promised to be quiet. I heard you tell her what you used to tell me, but your eyes were dull and empty. I waited until the conversation ended before I managed to spit out the words I had been choking on since you texted me that Tuesday. ‘You were everything I needed, but I don’t need no more.’ My hands were trembling and my voice was shaky. I saw tears build up in your eyes while I walked you outside. We didn’t say much, but we felt it all. You hugged me goodbye in front of your car, and when I pulled away I felt you pull me closer. I felt your chest expand while you took your last breath of me, and I had to stop myself from begging you to stay. I untangled your tightly latched arms from around my waist and took a step back. I watched you drive away and this time my heart didn’t sink. I was used to you leaving, but I caught you wiping away tears in your side mirror, and I almost texted you reminding you that maybe our time wasn’t done yet, maybe it’s just until we meet again. But instead I went back inside. I threw away your shirts, and that stupid blue pillow, flushed all the letters you wrote for me while at work from 9-5. I showered until I could no longer smell you on me and I slept with strangers until I forgot your touch. You came back to me today. For a couple hours it almost felt like home. Almost. However you are no longer my home, and for the first time I was okay with that. You came back to me today, and I say goodbye to you. Because you were everything I needed that I don’t need no more. -this is the last piece of art I’ll ever write about you.

The Great Comet of 1997 was one of the brightest comets to streak our skies, and was visible to the naked eye for a record 569 days, over 18 months. A spectacular sight, it was visible at its peak well before nightfall. In March, a solar eclipse that spanned China, Mongolia and eastern Siberia allowed observers there to see the comet in the daytime.

To this day, the comet is still being tracked by astronomers, and is predicted to stay observable until 2020, at which point it will become very difficult to distinguish from the large numbers of distant galaxies of similar brightness.
