Goodbye

Goodbye
By Michelle Morris 
09/07/2020 

We never got to say goodbye;
Too many memories, 
Too many miles. 
But I never forgot you - 
The feelings remained, 
To haunt the shadows 
Of my trauma and pain. 

I always loved you 
Despite it all;
Forgave you countless 
Times and more. 
I accepted your limitations 
And swore
I'd never become you, 
No matter the score.
