Friends to Strangers

we never said goodbye.

Friends to Strangers

I miss the ones I never said goodbye to

silent partings,

slow retreats

...

fleeting conversations

forgotten memories

unbeknownst that these would be our last

...

regrets of words withheld

if only I’d known

there’d be a day of final words spoken

...

a locked door

a lost key

a wall forms

...

Strangers.
