the art of saying good-bye. "friends part all the time. quickly, shortly, and usually very longingly. tis sad, joyous, depressed, all in all, creations of emotions fulfill the air as separation is anticipated. handshake, hug, kiss on the cheek, quick nod, hi-five, slap of palms. explaining the reason of au revoir, adios, sige. getting out swiftly is common due to the lack of attention gifted upon the victim, regarding the act of consideration to thou host, leader. waving once last time before all seen is silohuette of shadows upon shadows. smile vanishes, eyes watery, distance increasing. must it all end. final celebration, tis be back. no worries, no regrets. life live on, be straight, be new chapter." dedicated to Stacey. take care and good luck in hawai'i. i'll miss ya.
