Poetry: Saying goodbye

by Nancy Ryan

Created on: October 13, 2008

TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

The surge of energy passed through his veins

as he ran along the roadside

Escaping what he had known to be true

her heart leaving his heart behind

Where had he gone wrong

he looked to the heavens for answers

But found emptiness in the moments

that passed while he ran to confront her

Stay with me, were his pleads of sorrow

for his heart wasn't ready to leave

She glanced his way, then sat down beside him

she had no reason to deceive him

This is what it is, my friend

it's my time to say goodbye

A love that has fallen into the unknown

will only worsen and eventually die

I will love you always, as a good friend should

I know just how you feel

But we must do what's best for us

and keep things from becoming unreal

The path you walk will take direction

and your heart will be happy once more

Don't forget all the wonderful qualities you possess

bringing hope to loves open door

Goodbye my friend!
