Final Goodbye

This pain is so intense I never thought I would have to bear This enormous feeling of emptiness knowing you’re no longer there I try to ignore the dead silence that endlessly screams your name but my efforts to shut it out Is just a painful silly game Your time with me has expired our journey has come to a close to think you would be here forever Was just selfish of me i suppose But now i must accept and face the painful fact that the knowledge of our fate is never really exact So now I must face my fear and say my final goodbye Continue to be strong and pretend not to cry I know you are safe and not suffering anymore as you step across the threshold of heavens golden front door
