Unforgettable Goodbye

Things were over between us
You had made that perfectly clear
You had come by one last time to say your goodbye
But after four hours you were still here
We knew the break was for the best
Our time had run its course
But it was almost as if there was something unsaid
And to leave it would just be the worst
With all the pressure now off and no fear of commitment
I saw in your eyes one conclusion
That the something unsaid just had to come out
And only then would there be resolution

My anger at you came in full force
As I made quick work if your clothes
Not one to lose ground you made me relent
And forgot for a time all my woes
I made sure I took stock of your body
Your sleek curves
Your ripe lips
Your soft thighs
For never again would they be mine to behold
In my deep memory I committed your sighs
You also too drank me in all you could
Making the best of our time
That even though you were leaving me for him in the morning
You would long for the touch that was mine
We exhausted each other like there was no tomorrow
And for us it was all too true
I took you in every way I knew how
To cement in my mind the memory of you

Afterwards as you slept I sat back and observed
Half of you exposed in the moonlight
I dare not disturb you in your blissful state
It was the end to an unforgettable night
I grabbed my journal to keep the moment fresh
For my memory is all too fleeting
I even managed to work a quick sketch
Your only movement the rhythmic sound if your breathing

In the morning you left me for good
There was nothing left for us to say
As I watched you drive away I knew in my bones
That it could have ended no other way
