Farewell
The end has come.
Sooner than I thought,
and even with my heart pounding
painfully,
I know and accept
that it is goodbye.
Farewell my love.
I loved you for a long time
And letting you go was not easy.
My dignity flew away first,
Like a piece of paper in the wind.
It flew away...
Long before I heard the bell,
signalling the end.
I was stripped, naked.
With no self-respect, or
pride covering me.
Farewell Sir.
Have a good life.
I bid you farewell.
I straighten my back and shoulders
And know from this point on,
I will never look back.
Letting you go, when the truth
finally reach my heart.
As you wish.
Farewell.
Goodbye.
Adios.
