Things I Give

The endings tide near
For there ought to be
Just a simple gesture
A mere motion or two

A subtle hello
Versus a long goodbye
A voiceless face
Than a faceless voice

A few sweet words
Than harsh paragraphs
A short stay
More than never there

I give these to you
And never take it away
For what time we have
Shall never not be time

Author notes

The poem was a lot longer than it is now. But that would have been contradictory to the message within the poem, wouldn't it? Actually, I just thought the elongated version was too drawn out and desperate for a read. This way it's simpler. Hope you enjoy!
