Poem of the Week #12

Saying Goodbye
          By: Andrea : ]


Everything seems to be changing
Our environment is rearranging

You can see the space thicken between us

And you can feel the air intensify amongst us

Maybe it all started from just a little lie

Or maybe it started when you first made me cry

We never saw this coming our way
We were growing blinder each and every day

I gave my all, but you tossed it aside
All the pain I gained, I just couldn’t hide
I miss how I could actually call you mine

It gave me such a feeling that I just can’t define

I wanted this to work out how we had planned
I don’t want to end this with a reprimand
You should have thought longer
It’s okay though, because it all made me stronger

If you could go back to yesterday

What would be the last thing you’d say

I know I would say goodbye

I’m sorry, but I don’t want to hear another lie
