the me i was moments ago died to allow me to be the person i am now
i worry he died in vain
did he take the coward’s way out to avoid the pain of life
as this version fades in the dull ache as well
i feel envious
if there were a way to hold you tightly
that version of me would happily grow old with you
but we both know that isn’t in the cards dealt to the fool
so excuse me while i fade away and pass this burden to the next iteration to hold
loving you is the single greatest impossibility
just ask anyone that’s met you
farewell my dearest
until i am born again to fall for you anew
yours always
~ the fading fool
