Goodbye Because I Love You
Goodbye because I LOVE YOU
I need to go
Silence, tears versus needs
I need to say goodbye
I hate to see you crying
I’m miserable when I see you hungry
I feel like dying when you are sad
I need to go
I can control my tears
I can overcome my hunger
I can conquer my sadness
Because I LOVE YOU
I need to say Goodbye because I LOVE YOU
I need to go
For you to stop crying
For you to eat well
For you to reach your goal
For you to be happy
I’m not that far, just close your eyes and you will feel me
Because I LOVE YOU
One day
You will say
I LOVE YOU because you go
This poem is dedicated to a woman I’ve just met this weekend, we chat for a while and I can see myself in her when I bravely decided to work abroad.
