MY GOODBYE
Thank you for the memories good and bad.
Thank you for the smiles some so sad.
You were always on my mind despite our separate lives.
I am so very glad that we had met and you are someone I will never forget.
And the times I spent with you I have only a few regrets.
I have loved you from my heart like I have never loved before.
I gave you my all I could not give any more.
I guess you and I were not simply meant to be.
For the love I felt for you , you never felt for me.
Life goes on, and so will this love in my heart.
A heart that has been empty since we have been apart.
I thought that you loved me I thought that you cared.
But when it came down to it you simply were not there.
Your heart not in it, it was always astray.
I wish the words I love you, you meant and could have stayed.
You said that you loved me but I could not see.
Those three little words were not meant for me.
I did my best but my best was not good enough.
Love is not easy and at times it can be so rough.
The love I offered you was truly genuine.
But in your heart you were never really mine.
Just know that I honestly loved you and I really did care.
These must be the reasons that I am still here.
When I needed a friend you turned away.
You broke my heart and turned your love away.
I do not hate you I wish I could.
But I never will your still in my heart and always will.
And the sad thing about it I love you still.
I want the best for you I wish it could have been me.
But as I walk away please do not forget me.
Remember our good times even our bad.
Knowing now that you did not love me makes me feel so sad.
I honestly and truly did love you from the very start.
It was love at first sight and you left an impression in my heart.
My heart will keep beating as we move on.
Just know it was you that my heart could have won.
As I walk slowly away so you don’t have to run.
I want you to know I wish you all the joy and happiness wherever you go
