Poetry: Sad goodbyes

by Taylor Valentine

Created on: January 01, 2009   Last Updated: June 04, 2011

It's beautiful here. baby
And the moon looks just like your eyes
And if you were still here tonight
You'd light up the whole sky

And every star in the dark
I want it more than you know
Why'd you have to go?

Was there something I could have said
It's nights like these I wish I could have spoke
And I wish that you would miss me

Like you did when we were young
And these games didn't hurt as much
And there was so much less at stake

I'm sitting in the cold
Looking for a sign
That when you left that note

You didn't mean good bye
It's so much harder to breath
And the rain is falling down

I wish you were here with me
Because my heart is failing now
I know you're in your lovers arms

Let's not pretend that you're alone
But Ohio is calling, baby
And it wants you to come home
