No need to say goodbye-

As I sit here at my desk, peeling paper off paper, stapling and restamping
Issuing and discerning, delegating and deterring
Explaining and perpetuating
I realize the difference

You never leave anymore
I don't regret anymore
because I don't long anymore

You're only a dream away
a smile away
an epiphany away
a breath away

I don't sleep to dream because
I don't want to sleep anymore
The way the sunlight hits your eyes in the morning
I just want to wake up over and over again

In my morning walk, turning the quiet corners of Greenpoint
I see your sunrise hours ahead
the main difference is
Well, I don't know how to put it-
the sheer beauty of non-adjective moments perhaps
Your forte
