Love Poem: The Absence of Hello

The Absence of Hello

Passing years offer moments perfection can’t replace
The distance sails by underneath the footsteps of love
Beasts shrink away from the light emitted
By two hearts meant to shine together

It’s what you know
As you’re growing colder
Realizing she was never there

Heaven should protect the fool
That tries to come between them
No hand has ever been held so tightly
A love as blinding as the sun
And when you open your eyes

It’s what you know
He’s left you here
With no dream to wake from

So, here we are
Saying hello to goodbye
Saying hello to goodbye
To the time not long enough in between
So, here we are
Saying hello to goodbye
Saying hello to goodbye
To the time not long enough in between

It’s what you know
At the absence of hello
