I'M No Good At Goodbye

A laugh as I wave Hello- O' He's a jolly good fellow But when it is time to leave I become maudlin, melancholy, bereaved So I decide Not to decide I go and hide And let it slide As my friend departs I end it before I ever start Watching their back as they go Shrug my shoulders and so 'so' Really I'm terrified Feeling dead inside I'm the best at saying Hi O' how I'm no good at goodbye

Thanks for sharing this. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
