more than this

You know the drill... this one's from the challenge at onelinecreative, challenge sections are in bold.

The day you told me
You were leaving
Was the day I learned what life meant
All the things I recognized
Mirrored in unseen glass
Catching glimpses
I didn’t understand
Until that moment
Fragments of us in different lives
Different situations
Different outcomes
Fighting for this
For us
Wanting those lives
To overlap this
Skip over the pain
Abandon the memories
Start again same time different place
The us that made it
The us that burned
More intensely
More beautifully
The us that wasn’t scared of
The insanity of love
Wanting those things
But I watched them skip across
My other vision
The one that takes more than eyes
I watched them dance
Then fade
As you left me standing there
Awestruck
Mesmerized by the beauty
Of everything that couldn’t be
Too aware
To realize
You were saying goodbye
