Goodbye, An Introduction

i've never met goodbye
the moment is elusive
shadowed in curtains of disbelief
robed in the opaque velvet of hope
(itsnotoveryet)
the time when endings finally settle
dust layered atop this crimson desire
memory has drawn new pictures of what
no longer lives, and I'm never quite sure
(didireallylove?)
there is no absolute moment
(thisisitohmygod)
love dies a slow death, lingers
past the moment so that you
never know
you never really know
until it is too late to matter.
i've never met goodbye.
though i somehow remember her
there in the corner of the endings
waiting patiently
to finally shake my hand.

Poignant. I'm not sure about the use of the (allinonewords) type thing - but I guess that's all the rage nowadays, huh? lol.
I want to write things as concise as;
"the moment is elusive
shadowed in curtains of disbelief
robed in the opaque velvet of hope"
. . . someday. |

Ya, if that be the case then I'm old schoo too.
But as far as the poem, this is one of the first poems, I felt.
Well put! |

I liked the title. This was certainly lyrical, I thought the wordsallinone was ok - I find them hard to read, but they do have a sort of breathless quality.
Thanks for writing. |
