Good-bye

There was a certain tenderness in their embrace
as if to hold any tighter would prove this moment to be an illusion
and disappear as whisps of smoke through grasping fingers
“It is good to see you” he said to her as he looked into her eyes.
“I’ve been searching for you, across the seas of time, I’ve never stopped” was the message his eyes relayed to hers
“I- I must…” something, long dormant, within her stirred behind her eyes, she blinked “I must be going.”
She moved in to give him a kiss, but the moment their lips touched, the world melted away.
In that timelss moment, a fragment of her remembered.
Pulling away, she shook her head trying to clear her thoughts.
With a sigh, “Good-bye” she turned and left.
With closed eyes and a smile
he might have hope for awhile
