so i say this in honor of the future
thank you,
thank you dearly
for the memories

for though it might seem
all fine
and dandy
at the moment,

and nothing bad could possibly happen

to us

we know
that
somehow
this will pass
as all moments do

and i would rather
see it coming
than
let my heart
plummet into the sea
with stark disappointment

(but that doesn't mean i can't lock it
away in the pocket of my heart
and go back to it when nobody's looking
as though it were just yesterday
that you ran your smooth fingers
along the jagged cracks of my soul
and told me
you loved me)

;; i am sappy trash i'm sorry
