Goodbye

How to avoid her, has become my daily game.

To run into them together, would bring nothing but pain.

I'm happy that she smiles now, but wish that i could be,

The man of her dreams, the star of her fantasy.

But just to know she's happy now, makes me smile inside.

It just has to be from far away, so I can keep my pride.

For every time I see her face, I must hold back my tears,

Keep bottled up inside of me, memories of our happy years.

Now how to say goodbye for good, I need to quickly learn.

Put memories into a fire, and metaphorically burn,

All the things that matter most, deep within my heart.

For from my love, and my best friend, I must now forever part.
