Love walked down a winding road
to a place inside my head
we walked the road together
now I walk alone, instead.
So I say goodbye
not with a tear but with a kiss
a kiss for the memory
that walks inside me still.
I hold on to the memory as I once held your hand.
One day maybe our paths will cross
we'll talk about old times
we'll both pretend we care no more
hiding behind false laughter.
So I say goodbye
not with a tear but with a kiss
a kiss for the memory
that walks inside me still.
I hold on to the memory as I once held your hand.
Feelings inside us never really die
they just find a quiet room and lock the door
they sit in the darknes waiting
maybe one day I’ll find the key.
So I say goodbye
not with a tear but with a kiss
a kiss for the memory
that walks inside me still.
I hold on to the memory as I once held your hand.
to a place inside my head
we walked the road together
now I walk alone, instead.
So I say goodbye
not with a tear but with a kiss

One day maybe our paths will cross

So I say goodbye
not with a tear but with a kiss
a kiss for the memory
that walks inside me still.
I hold on to the memory as I once held your hand.

Second Prompt~ Goodbye: Saving Able (Song from my playlist which you will find on my page)
I'm really not sure about this. As your prompt is a song I've attempted to write a song lyric based on a similar sentiment. I've never attempted writing lyrics before ( as you can probably tell
) but I didn't want to give you 3 poems.
