3. Goodbye (Part 3)

Folder: 
Poem Series

This is it...

It's really over...So I'm saying Goodbye...





I did everything I could to try and make 'us" work,

But in the end it just led me to more hurt- But it was worth.

Every bit of my trying- But I'm tired of crying,

Tired of lying- To myself, sitting and asking why and.

Did I do something wrong- To make you wanna be gone,

It feels like it's been so long- Since I wrote that very first poem.

To you, and it was entitled- "The Best That I Can",

And I promised I did my best- I gave you all of who I am.

Did my best to be a man- And to hold on to what we had,

But my grip got tired- And you slipped through my hands.

So I guess this is goodbye- To what used to be you and I,

To me and you, us two- To those late calls at night.

Because I know you have another life- And you gotta live it how you like,

But as long as you're happy- Then I'm gonna be alright.

But for now, I'm gonna lock our love away- We can go our separate ways,

And if it's meant to be- We'll pull it out again one day.

Our journey was one to remember- The path we traveled together,

Helping each other along- We just made each other better.

And I will never forget you- And all the things you've done,

And maybe one day I'll get you again- 'Cuz maybe you are the one.

But for now,"I Can't Love You No More"- So as these last tears are cried,

In my heart you will be forever- But for now, I'm saying goodbye.
