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
