Goodbye

Our paths did cross and that journey we took The scenic route along the whispering brook We stopped to smell the roses bloom And see the birds with colored plumes Life hast not spoken a life so serene To compare with this journey so it may seem But to every beginning there comes an end So I must say goodbye to you my friend We gelled, we chilled, we’d hang out a lot Remember when I’d play with your spot But alas my friend these things must stop For seasons change, that I can not stop I can not say that I will see you later Nor would it be right to hang around for a while So… see you later alligator You reply after a while crocodile It’s best we part on amicable ways Then to progress for more disappointing days A new path such a delectable thought To go back down the path a reason I have not So I take my charge and I carry my satchel With good tidings to the next castle Bringing with me a cheerful smile An open mind, and a heart without guile We have come to this fork in the road And the path I choose you can not go Ask for guidance and for Him to order your steps Calling to Him is your best bet So with that said, I tilt my hat to you madam I wish you all the good days I can fathom To every dark cloud there is a silver lining So wipe your tears my child and start climbing You shall come to find what’s right for you The feelings of blue will be gone from you As we part and go our separate paths We didn’t work out but our friendship can last
