-parting Is Such Sweet Sorrow-
~~***~~
We have set our parting for the morrow,
Knowing it will bring such sorrow.
We have shared so many happy years
I know that very soon I’ll be in tears.
We’ve been together from the very start.
I never imagine we’d ever have to part.
I blame myself for neglecting you
Now there’s nothing left for me to do.
There was a time you brought nothing but joy
Today…all you ever do is annoy.
The only thing you bring me now is pain
Believe me, I try so hard not to complain.
Each time I think of what lies in store
My tears keep falling more and more.
The actual parting will cause so much pain
I’m sure I’d want to jump in front of a train.
The Next Morning:
The time is right to rid myself of you.
As of now, you and I are through.
It is now time for the moment of truth
The dentist is ready to extract my tooth!!
OUCH!!!!!!!!!!
