Bitter But Better Bye

You were never mine,
so your exit is fine,
leaving me is not a loss
because your stay was just 
a cross.
I met you for a reason,
breaking up was a lesson.
It never started in faith,
I was only lost in wraith,
along the line, it came to 
mind
that my heart had been 
blind.
Now I know it was all lies
for true love never dies.
You are a friend I never had
yet the experience was not 
all bad.
May God guide you in joys 
and pains
Till I see you, beyond the 
plains.
To you, Teewhy, I say 
goodbye,
and to eternal treasure I 
draw nigh.
Bye, Bye, Bye
