A Most Beautiful Goodbye

We should've been sad 
         and blue, but strangely 
       we found ourselves caged 
      in saccharine-sweet ecstasy.

    She walked away, leaving me
         floating in the clouds, 
      with bejeweled memories
       to steadfastly hold on to.

      Tenderly, we kissed, then
        she gives me one more
               upon my brow  
        for the road on parting.

    Within stone-throw distance,
      she slowly turns her head;
              her hair flopping
          over her smiling eyes...

         in the noontide zephyr.
     she blows me one last kiss,
       and we exchanged waves.
       A most beautiful goodbye.
