The Last Hug Before Goodbye


The Last Hug Before Goodbye

Arman Rashid


Your arms held me one final time,

warmth and sorrow mingling in that space.

I felt every heartbeat, every unspoken word,

and the weight of what we were losing.


The wind whispered through the open door,

carrying the scent of things we shared.

I wanted to hold on longer,

but time had other plans for us.


Your eyes searched mine for answers,

for promises we could not make.

I traced the lines of your face in memory,

knowing it would be my last chance.


The world seemed to pause around us,

even as it moved forward without care.

I pressed my cheek against yours,

catching every trace of your warmth.


Every second stretched and then broke,

and I felt the inevitability of the goodbye.

We parted with silence between us,

a quiet I could never forget.


And as I walked away, I realized:

some hugs stay in the heart long after we let go.
