Down the lane...

Took a deep breath

And I moved along

Looking back

I see the world

I left behind

I feel the air

I used to breathe

I look up at the sky

I used to stare

I touch the ground

That held my feet

I hear the whispers

That refused to leave

I hear my heart beat

One more time

As I leave behind the pieces

I can no longer find

Looking back

I walked along the streets

We walked by

Stared at the moon

That was yours and mine

Sat down at the café

Where it all began

Held onto hope

Up a mountain so high

Only to watch it slide down

The other slope in a sigh

I laid awake

Every night and day

Looked beyond every lake

For a flutter, a chirp

To see what it was

That I could not see

To understand

Why it was not meant to be

Looking back

I don’t know what to expect

Haven’t figured it out yet
