ending – The Messy Middle 🖤

Hold on, Henry.

Remember, when it was once upon a time, Henry?

From dusk until dawn, Henry?

Is that fair, Henry?

Do you not even care, Henry?

Is this the end of the line, Henry?

Were you ever even mine, Henry?

Were we just passing time, Henry?

Hold on, Henry.

–S.

Goodnight butterflies.

Goodnight fireflies.

Goodnight crying eyes.

Goodnight laughing kisses,

and every day blisses.

Goodnight you.

Goodnight me.

Goodnight to all of the things we didn’t get to be.

Goodnight to all we did not see.

Goodnight love,

and goodnight again, to all of the above.

–S.

I don’t say I love you because I don’t.

I don’t say I’ll miss you because I won’t.

I say I’ll see you around because I probably will,

but I don’t want you thinking that time is standing still.

-S.
