Dawn Drickman Poet I do not know?

The Chatroom Departure

When once a heart did shine so bright
When once a soul was lifted
When once a smile meant so much
When once a life was gifted

When once a hand reached out
When once a hand was taken
When once I made a friend
When once that trust forsaken

When once you made me laugh
When twice you made cry
I knew that very moment
Was the time to say good-bye

Good-byes are never easy
There are no words to say
Only remnants of emotions
That I must put away

A treasure chest of memories 
Once good  have turned to bad
Pages filled with the names of friends
That once I thought I had

So many times I was told
What you read is not real
But ever more hurtful
Are the words that they conceal

I came with good intentions
I will leave the very same way
With this farewell, comes advice
Please hear me when I say

Choose your words carefully
For fragile hearts do exist
When you feel the need to gossip
Temptation you must resist

And choose your friends cautiously
Need you ask me why
Instead of me, it could be you
Typing this good-bye

For those of you that lied to me
Your words I will not miss
So from my heart I say to you
My rosey bum you can kiss

And to those that are sincere
You know who you are
Call me when you need me
I shant go very far.....
