Goodbye.
The word resonates for me. One word, just one word. Simple word. Simple meaning behind it. In any other context...just a word.
Just one word.
Goodbye.
In other contexts it's everything. In other contexts it separates, it drives apart, it is one word with staggering power to change all landscapes.
One word. One small, simple word. One word means everything is over, and can never be started again. One...little...word.
But it wasn't said to me. That word. That goodbye. Not directly.
Does it still count? That one word.
It was said. The universe heard, brought it to my ears. Short, the traveling, all in all, but the lump in my throat tells me, I heard the message of it. I was yet unready to hear it, but I heard.
Mayhap I will never be ready to hear that word. Mayhap that word, that small, small word...will always have the power to undo me.
One small word. Such a small word.
Such great power I've invested in such a small word.
I hear you. I am yet sorry, but that can change nothing now. It's been said, it can't be unsaid.
Goodbye.
One more love spins off into the moonless night...The cold of winter grows more bitter still.
have mercy on my soul, I will never let you know where my mind has been

Fraulein Orr,
Your last line leaves me somewhat concerned for your wellbeing.

I heard from someone that the pull of the moon can affect the human psyche. Perhaps it affects us in ways that takes us from the path we are used to.

I understand your concern. I will recover, I will heal. To say that this comes at an inopportune time is to minimize to the point of absurdity.
But I do have friends, I am relying on their support. And I have the land, and it offers succor.
I am not alone. I rely on that most of all. And I thank you, sincerely, for your concern.
Lunar, it well may be. I was thrown from my path well in advance of this, I hold no participant to blame. All things happen when they are meant to, and usually, for good reasons...even if we do not comprehend them at the time.
