Melvin Johnson Poet Rhyme

Last Goodbye

If only you were still here, my life would be so easy
The way we love each other was simple for no reason

Together our lives held so many memories between the both of us
We would stay by each other side even if we were fussing

Now I have to realize that my life has to go on without you
I'm in this world along now. Hoping that it's a dream, but in reality I know it's true 

My heart is so devastated because we were just together
Enjoying the moment of life because we thought we had forever

But no one could stop death from knocking at your door
We were alway told, "to live your life to the fullest" because tomorrow could be no more

I wish I could have been with you, I could have said goodbye
But now I'm all along, living in a world, and I'm about to cry

So say hello to all our ancestors that left us along the way
I know deep in my heart we will see each other again some day.
