Eternal Moments

Goodbye my favorite forever

Eternal fragments lost in abstract soup de jour 

Our handshakes full of tremors

When the memories rain it's sore

My heart in freefall, falling up and out, forever's too soon

The paragraph on the backs of pictures stabs the point home

Skeletal strangers with nothing left to prove

The distance signals in real time leaving the breadcrumbs of

jarred hearts, parted hearts and Pacman ghosts in slow pursuit

The light of pumpkin eyes, rhymical in pursuit of boyish daydreams

Girlish looks of starving hearts appreciated less than pennies now

Parting words circled in funny papers still shaking with regret

When you see me in the folded memories

Just know you're not alone

Your light smiling on in the hollows of my eyes

Smiling in hindsight begging you to come home

Begging me to be brave

Goodbye my favorite forever

You're my long way out
