Hope

When you say goodbye to someone and walk in separate directions, not knowing the things that you will go and do and events to come, do you ever turn your head over your shoulder just one last time to see if they turn back, too? Or do you not want to bother with something that involves so much hope in fear of your heart breaking?


You have groundless hope, and with that your head turns south in the direction of footprints leading away from where you are. You see their eyes locking on yours; a final half grin and a flicker of fingers raised with palm facing back to where those footprints originated from... That, to me, says "this isn't goodbye".
