farewell

is this where the journey ends
and our roads diverge
where i walk down this path
and there is only 1 set of footprints
because truly
i am strolling alone down this path

i look back
hoping
somehow
you'll be there
or you will miraculously appear
grasp my hand between yours
or once again be that umbrella over my head
on that rainy day

but i realize
that as time draws near
and we are truly to part
that all promises are now futile
and trust have been lost
and all that is left
is the heart that races
against all odds

many questions left unanswered
those moments in life we truly unable to comprehend
and yet it beats
steadily
for it knows
somehow
one day
it'll be heard
i know
it will
