I was a fool to let you go. Especially when you asked me to hold you tightly. But at that time I could not comprehend your words, especially your feelings. I could not even grasp the meaning of that song in the mixtape you gave to me.

"Never let me go", was the song. I wish I had understood.

I do now, but it is too late, of course. It is too late to get to work today. It is too late to even drink that coffee before it gets too cold. It is too late to savor the moment that is leaving without saying goodbye.

I hear the door closing, that's all...

"Einmal ist keinmal". Once is never.
