Final Goodbye

I sat down to write, And it took me all night, But there was something I needed to say, Something I couldn’t put into words till this day. Poetry can be hard, Cause I let down my guard. But for you I’ll try, Till my pen runs dry. Because I love you more than words can say, Though our relationship was sort of gray. We clung to each other in a final goodbye, And as you walked away I had no tears to cry. But you left me in this world alone I just want you to come back home for these tears flow so free It’s so unlike me… Every single song I hear, About losing someone dear, Reminds me of you, I really miss you. I feel my heart breaking, As my hands start shaking. I’m breaking down, Without a sound. I just curl up and make myself small, As the tears are beginning to fall I miss your caring touch, Loving you hurts so much. One last kiss, And one last embrace, I’d do anything to see your face Maybe one day you can tell me why Why you never said goodbye. Then you’ll smile, and I’ll wave And we’ll pretend it’s all ok
