After Biding You Farewell

After biding you farewell I raised my hopes and assured my thoughts That I would see you again I stood on my feet strong enough to carry on I faced the endless journey of my life I set the past aside except your name Ringing melodiouse bells in my head I went away with it Unsettled in some city I kept your shadow right next to me I pictured this,I pictured that and us Giggling to our teenage stories I couldn't let it go so I lived with it After biding you farewell I went on to meet new men and women I went on to make new memories But I kept failing to erase the old ones Your figure in the midnights Your shadow in the midday Always there scaring the lonely part out of me After biding you farewell I Stood at the entry gates of my life I looked closely into the future I saw you arms open and big smiles Singing your way back to us in the early days I gave my every step closer to you After biding you farewell I realised I just did the same to my future And I needed to reunite Eddie Leo Manomano
