You never realize
it’s your last goodbye
Until the moment has
forever passed by
Without you it seems
as everything would end
But I slowly realize we
were only playing pretend
A simple ‘hey’ or ‘hi’
Couldn’t stitch together
the time that has passed by
Our time has gone
And we are done
by morning dawn
I was scared to let go
But to go on would
only be a show
I force myself to
close our case
And maybe I have
found my place
A spot in the deepest
part of your memory
Is where we lie in our
man-made cemetery
I wish we could go
back in time
As if we never said our final g o o d b y e ;
The Last Goodbye
