Goodbye Poems | Examples of Goodbye Poetry

You said goodbye Like it would be a grenade in my heart Waited for the bang Not realizing I had let go from the start You thought it would be better If we were to stay here, both worlds apart You said goodbye But the horse had not been put before the cart You wanted a reaction You wanted me to cry You wanted me...

It finally makes sense You and him No longer haunt me The desperation is gone The void is filled And the wound is healed The digging has stopped The music is just music again No one needs to understand Because now I'm able To stop the If Onlys No tortured metaphors No anguish in the back of my head No longer in pieces Now in peace...

The final goodbye Its not a surprise I pushed so hard Saw it happening Couldn't stop it Loathed myself for it The final goodbye I thought would hurt more But it feels self inflicted Which took the sting I already felt empty Now it feels complete The final goodbye They say it's sweet sorrow Why did I make it bitter And the worst part is knowing If...

Your needs unmet and, too, mine equally fulfilled,—I s’pose it’s best to leave this where it stands.—what other course could feel as fair? But deep disturbances in mon esprit, increasingly violent unto me, (as roaring winds and foaming omens) stir tidal wave emotions without compare;— breaking—in terrific fatality. My heart adrift,—stranded soon on your shore,— beats weak, throbs sad sobs, sniffles back such...

**"Set Back to the Get Back"** Some people agree, while others disagree; it’s hard to please everyone I see. Do you disagree? Some want me to feel their pain, demanding sympathy without offering any in return. How can they prevail? It’s hard to believe I was once just like them. It’s called “The Set Back to...

Death, death, Oh! Old Death Old death makes everybody dry and sad Death even makes kings who are grumpy and mad Absolutely powerless, helpless and useless Death makes us mute, motionless, lifeless and deaf In the darkest, hottest part of the crater And deep within the brightest cell or cache of the chamber Where too much light Blinds the retinas and this is...

From the start, you have made assumptions. I had something or I was someone. It was all in your wild imaginations, I did not plan it to happen. I meant no harm, was really innocent. I did not lie, pretend or act, To deceive, hurt or harm you deliberately. Just that I did not know you, Not well at all to correct you, To...

I waxed the floor too carefully— the classroom still blue with youth I left behind. Fresh chalk lined up like teeth I inhaled and exhaled. Suspicion wore me like a suit, choking tight at the neck. The sun laughs, burning “BE CHEERFUL!” in bubble letters on my back— a bright villain. Sharpen your pencil. Bring it here. My mouth tastes sour: the flavor...

FOR IX : EMIGRATING FRIEND Fly lightly IX within Merlin’s wings may your Mohican pony-tail grow thick and strong may Africa kiss America with gentle sensation long may salty breath of Cape Town mingle with New York ~ may clear sub-atomic particles continue to dance in humble service with harmonious Awareness may two crows and all Duality dissolve into Unity via your...

"We must say, goodbye to winter but do not be sad. It will come back again next year with a big smile and plenty of snow. Now we welcome Spring to enjoy." By Poet Winter can be very cold, the wind will sing and be very bold. The ground is covered with fluffy snow, to play in as the...

And the phone rings Your name splashed across my screen I answer but you are not there Were you ever? A thousand times my hand has hovered Balanced over your number Torn between wanting Knowing what will happen Clinking glasses, muffled voices Straining, to hear you again Waiting, wanting, hoping But it’s too late Too late to be calling me Another reckless accident The definition of us A fitting...

Exchanging my memories for value, Last week, I visited a pawn shop and pawned my memories. With each piece, I attempt to disregard the memories. The most significant item was the wedding ring. His face appeared before me as we stood before the judge, exchanging vows that were not upheld. She attempted to remove the baby ring that no longer...

Am I crazy if it’s been five years and I still expect you to walk through the door? If I can’t give away your clothes because you might need them? Am I over the line if I fantasize that your treatment worked and you never died at all? And I laugh with you over breakfast while we sip coffee as we always did? I’m afraid to...
