we find ourselves apart

ourselves
divided.
gone
somewhere
i cannot see.
you were
lost
and i was too
blind to find
you.
sometimes hearts
wander of
their own
accord
and are too foolish
to return.
sometimes a soul
grows beyond
the body.
sometimes
two minds
no longer work
as one.
it doesn't mean i
will not miss you,
it does not mean
that you didn't
mean something
to me.
we are sailing
through the air
in different directions.
but i will be sure to
remember your smile.
i'll be sure to keep it
carved in the
brittle part of
my skull
where all great things go.
and without those memories
of you,
i couldn't be
who i am.
but with you
i couldn't have been
any more.
it's relative when i
look away.
and i guess
that's all i needed
to say.
