Goodbye My Lover, My Friend
Sweet memories bring me sighs
So many tears from our many goodbyes
Hey!!!!!!!! Those days life was new
Your ginger laughter filled the room
I feel the grief of our childhood
I curl beneath myself and sob
A cherry rope swings between the tree
Of summer nights on the beach
When the wind moaned up the hill
And you’d take me in your arms
And hand me such a big kiss
The sweet hugs meant just for me
Now we’re parting, leaving these walls
Where our laughs and tears forms the beats
The glitter of our many dreams spill and hunt these walls
So caged they refuse to fly away
It’d be a felony if the memoirs swayed
I bubble in the corners of your head
Ray dots that never change with time
So many promises I keep on hold
And as I say my last goodbye
And looking at the smiling sky
I know one day that all this sorrow
Will peel off before those teary eyes
That day we shall mend the past
Because it has always been a patent
You belong to my heart
