Goodbye For Now

Dear Andrew,

Time changed us

and we grew apart

but I still love you.

and I still miss you everyday.

Sometimes I ignore the pain

other days 

I embrace it

to remember you

I know you wouldn't want this

but 

I know you wouldn't want to be forgotten.

That's why you talk to me

in my dreams 

or even

when I'm outside

and the wind picks up

and there's a whisper through the 

leaves in the trees.

I know you're there.

Sometimes life goes on as usual

other days it stops so suddenly

and I can't breathe 

as if my heart decides

it's done beating

and just wants to join you.

I can't though.

There's still so much left to do

so many people left to meet

places to see

so that when I die

I may see you again

and tell you all about it

and you will laugh

You will tell me

"I was there the whole time,

didn't you see me?"

Of course I did.

I see you everywhere.  

I cannot wait for that day.

Truly,

it will be heavenly.

Love Always,

Boo
