Say Goodbye

I seen your face I felt your embrace And it just wasn't the same I finally walked away without lookin' back to call out your name Once you were my best friend Once I swore I'd be yours to the end But I guess its time to say goodbye Many of times you have clipped my wings but now its time for me to fly I still remember all the drunken fights I still remember all the sad lonely nights It was constant infedlity My only prayer was to be set free Thats not a place a girl can call home Life is better when I'm out on my own Sleepin' in alleys, living off dumpster buffets, and seeking dope Stealing and lying is no longer my only hope I won't fall for what you have to say I refuse to cry for you today I have come so far and moved onto something more Life is better than ever before But I guess its time to say goodbye Many of times you have clipped my wings but now its time for me to fly

As a published poet, I only have one thing to criticize, the first two lines of the first stanza I would have utilized ( I've seen) and ( I've Felt) both past tense. Other than that I did feel this poem. The feeling is there, the heart is there I gave this 6 out of 7 for content.Well done. God Bless and Merry Christmas....Taz
