Signs of Truth

The door closes
to loneliness.
Breath comes hard.
Tears threaten.

Spiraling thoughts
replay every moment
looking for signs
of truth.
Is this goodbye the last?

A promise means everything.

Breath returns in deep swells.
Tears release.
Calmed thoughts
reach forward
embracing certainty.

The door closes
to loneliness,
but this goodbye is not the end.
