I look at you,
through my tear- filled eyes.
What am I going to do,
with you so far away? My heart cries.
Memories sweep across my mind,
never ceasing waves, endless tide.
Your memory, you're leaving behind
But it's not the same as you by my side.
The sky, as if a mirror
to my emotions, breaks open, rain begins to fall.
Once music I used to hear,
Just bounces off these walls.
But I can't cry, no not yet.
Crying would mean 1 step
Closer to have to forget
That love so deep I've kept.
You hold me close, for the longest time.
And I can;t help but remember
all the mountains we've had to climb.
Those times when we were'nt sure.
You take my hand
And I know no one else
Will ever understand
the love, the pain, the things we felt.
Too soon we must part.
I watch your back turn, and you walk away.
I let loose,I cry. But I know in my heart
Yur ghost, and love will always stay.
So good-bye my true love.
Good-bye my heart's soul.
Good-bye my lost love.
Good-bye who made me whole.

Gosh this is sad but so very beautfiul. I know what its like to have to just let go and watch whom you love fade into the distance. Nice emotional piece. Thank you so much for taking the time to enter my contest and best wishes to you!
