Apa Trece, Pietrele Raman.
its a long fall to goodbye,
but i can't help but look up.

i call on allusions, balls of fire,
anything.

anything to keep you here with me.

i'm jealous, selfish, righteous and mean.
i never wanted to share,
especially you.

the bottom never looked so far of a jump alone.

i know i'm afraid of change, i know all my faults.
i also know that you at a distance from me, unable to recognize me half the time
is much better than ever going up alone.
because i can still feel the warmth of your face,
the fading sparkle in your eyes.
and while you may call me stranger,
you will forever be my home.

i was always grateful for you.
we always knew that about each other.

i don't want to let go of your hand.
because i'm still six years old, whining as you untangle knots in my hair and fasten the buttons of my crocheted jacket that you made me on.

because at twelve we played rummy in the moonlight, chatting about your noble past and how your mother died.

because im almost eighteen.
and i can't fathom life without you anymore.
