Notes About The Poem

Prelude To Parting!

Tossin' Goodbye Around

Souls searching--Hearts are missing
Two's talking--No one's listening
Something's lost--Nothing's found
Tossing goodbye around

Angry words--Cut like daggers
Wounded pride--All that matters
Distance grows--On common ground
Tossing goodbye around

Goodbye--Why are they waiting
Goodbye--Can be their's for the taking

Dawn is breaking--Desperation 
Finger pointing--Demonstration
Granite walls--Not coming down
Tossing goodbye around

Tears of crystal--Slowly shatter
Lonely served--On a silver platter
Catch the next--Broken Heart Bound
Tossing Goodbye Around

Would love to listen to your songs if you ever put them to music. Your lyrics are so entertaining, they always take the stage as I listen and enjoy. Well done, Chuck, as always.
