wave

just fooling around/experimenting

you wave your hand

to say goodbye with no tomorrow

to give me a glimpse

of the sorrow i myself

 

cannot hold

might explode

 

goodbye with no tomorrow

and i’m drowning in my sorrow

 

i would

pretend i would

see you tomorrow

but i know

 

such hope cannot

hold

against such sorrow

 

it is known now

and i can’t dress it up

any longer

 

can’t hold on much longer

 

and i wave back

as my fingers go numb
