Taking the Bow

Alas! my time has come to an end, Too bad for me? Only time will tell, Whether or not the Creator decides, To bring us back to the beginning of this time. I gave to you the best I had, And to part with you is very sad, So I try so hard never to remind, Myself of all the times we had. Whether good or bad, Happy or sad, It cannot be denied, In every situation you and I bonded. So once it is all said and done, The only word left is one, The one that everybody knows, The one that nobody says. But even though we may not want, To say this word we know will grant, Our doubts of seeing each other chance, The time has come for the final dance. So to this place we know and love, We must take a bow, close the curtain, Bid each other farewell, And say Goodbye.
