Goodnight, Goodbye

Emotions running high as kites,
Tension that can be papercut
With the words you last spoke
And deeper wounds from the words
You never said.
There's a kind of silence
That begs to be broken
By the looks you once gave me,
the ones that made the world fade away.
And all we saw was each other.
And all we felt was
A single heartbeat.
I loved you more in that instant than I'll ever admit,
Even to myself.
I keep telling myself
"You did the right thing"
But if it's so right, why
Do I feel like I am never going
To be cheerful again?
Eskimo kisses should be considered infidelity,
They are far more involved than just
Lips meeting.
We had no right to feel
So passionate about each other,
We tried to fight it off but
lost ourselves
In the fire we'd discovered in
Our hearts.
And now we sit apart and
Wonder why we didn't give it a chance
When we know we'd be
legendary together.
