Last Day

We got up so early with so much to do.
We made plans throughout the day,
separate events that would happen,
where our paths would not cross
and would keep us further apart.
We sent each other messages to voice
rather than answering the phone.
We chose not to meet for lunch
because we both wanted different foods that day.
We promised ourselves
to tell the other those loving words.
We bought each other a gift
but gave not of our time.
We chose to spend one precious hour
that evening in a heated debate
whose outcome neither could control.
Only one of us rose the next morning.
