we walked away so slowly that we were aerodynamic.

his eyes will always be stuck in my memory,

the way that they looked so miserable

when i could see them through the glass,

when we both knew that things weren't going to last.

he put the palm of his hand against the divider

i met his with mine and started to cry.

there wouldn't be anymore nights where i could

trace the shape of his back and feel the soft skin of his chest.

his face, so angelic, will never be near mine again.

i turn away and walk across the gray carpet

trying to follow the pattern with my eyes

he knew i was never good at goodbyes

i was never good at unhappy endings.
