I Don't Want To Wake Up

In 18 hrs he will be gone.

I'm at his house helping him pack, and by helping, I mean drinking and choosing what music we listen to.

He allows me this, still making me laugh as if tomorrow is nothing but a normal day.

I have not broken down yet. I don't know whether to be proud of this or worried at the eventual demise I will have.

What scares me the most is that his goodbye will be brief, nonchalant. As if the last 6 months, 3 weeks and something days have been nothing but a dream - and it's time to wake up now.

One Last Kiss

'I have to go' he says softly,. I narrow my eyes,. Feeling the lump in my throat,. Lugubriousness washes over me,. My hot tears are pouring down my cheeks,. 'No this can't be!' I declare,.

Sailing Boats

Silence; I watch you from across the gallons of sea water between us. You float across the pier, The promenade seeming to separate us further as it curves and stretches.

Last Goodbyes

He goes away today With a smile on his face And a confident walk; A spring in his step. Dressed in army fatigues, Proud of who he is, Off to serve the people For queen and country.
