Goodbye, my love,
I am walking out this door.
I am not going to look back
I know I've tried before.
Goodbye, sweetheart
Our love is no longer sweet.
Love has topped out at none
And I'm feeling beat.
Goodbye, my dear,
I wish you could realize
That quiet footsteps are
Better than swollen eyes.
Goodbye, my love,
Do not wipe my tears.
I must feel I am strong
Without residing fears.
Goodbye, sweetheart,
I can no longer stay.
We have both changed and
I cannot love you this way.
Goodbye, my dear,
This brokenness must stop
Because you have taken every tear
You have taken every drop.
this is such a sad poem, beautifully written, i particuarly like the last stanza 'you have taken every tear you have taken every drop' a great read! deryn
I like this poem. It captures the emotion of a divorce/breaking up situation. Well done.
